>How liquid is it?

Generally illiquid, though it sells regularly on eBay over spot.

>Would it have to be tested in order to sell it?

That depends upon the buyers requirements. I got a composition certificate along with mine so I would show that if I were to sell.

>Is it in coin or bar form?

There are some rudimentary bars/coins but to remain cost effective you would probably want to go for press melted pellets. Price should be around $1 to $1.50 a gram for those.

>Has it been used as currency in the past?

I am pretty much certain it has not been. Partly due to the double edged sword of an incredibly high melting point.

>Just because it is rare, is it valuable?

No. But it does have some very interesting properties that make it useful for cutting edge technologies (think 4th industrial revolution).
