    Is this a 1/10 or a 1/5? I paid .2oz price. Stomach is turning a bit.

    It looks like 1/5th, just from the size. Beautiful piece!

    Which would be a fifth of an ounce.

    As long as you paid around melt/ a little over you did ok.

    Probably retails for melt +10% typically

    You did not buy a 20 Korona, but a ducat. Still a restrike, but only containing 3,8 g of gold and sold as buillion.

    I think the 3.8g is correct. I contacted the man who did the auction and he said he'd make it right.

    Woops, I should of took a better look at the coin. It's a 1 ducat with only .1106 gold content.

    Here is what a 20 krona looks like:
