Can't we simply agree it's about 30g? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE] A troy ounce is the same as 1 American Silver Eagle Coin=31 grams of silver.  To be exact, they are 31.103 grams of fine silver as some of the purists websites like wiki will list.  One troy ounce is always 31 grams no matter what! [ATTACH=full]787061[/ATTACH] The 28.3 grams is equivalent to a Mexican ounce! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />  At least that's how it's always been done in California but that's only for marijuana and other drugs, not for silver or gold. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
