I assume you're referring to the part where he (Sam/De Niro, I think it was) notices his hand was silver after handling the case. At which point, he quickly throws the case (under the nearest car) and it promptly explodes.

I never did understand that bit; maybe I missed something. How did he know that the silver paint (or whatever it was) meant that the case was likely to explode?
1 - The previous (real) case didn't do this
2 - This was fake => dangerous => get rid...

That possibility did cross my mind too, but it seems a bit odd that while all parties involved clearly wanted to get their hands on this case at any cost, someone would make a cheap fake with an improperly painted handle.

Another thought that occurred to me was that maybe it wasn't paint but some sort of explosive powder. Still not sure why it would be all over the handle though.
