Because the other platinum-family members were not discovered yet (platinum was the first in the list), Scheffer and Sickingen made the false assumption that due to its hardness—which is slightly more than for pure iron—platinum would be a relatively non-pliable material, even brittle at times, when in fact its ductility and malleability are close to that of gold.

Oleh karena anggota keluarga platina lainnya belum diketemukan (platina adalah yang pertama), Scheffer dan Sickingen membuat asumsi yang keliru tentang kekerasannya—yang lebih disebabkan oleh besi murni—platina menjadi bahan yang relatif keras, bahkan rapuh, ketika kelenturan dan elastisitasnya mendekati emas.
