Is the bequest revoked if the specified item is mixed with other similar items in a way that distinction is impossible?

Book of Bequests
Primary text
If a testator bequeathed a specific item and then mixed it with other similar items such that distinction is impossible, this constitutes a revocation of the bequest. This is because delivery of the bequeathed item becomes impossible, which indicates the testator’s intent to retract the bequest.
