Abstract
A "magnetic" photon hypothesis associated with magnetic monopoles is tested experimentally. These photons are predicted to easily penetrate metal. Experimentally the optical transmittance T of a metal foil was less than 2 x 10^-17. The hypothesis is not supported since it predicts T = 2 x 10^-12.
