[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 5218486, member: 115909"]Just wanted to follow up my last reply. I measured the other dimensions (length, width, diameter) and all of those are exactly what they are officially designated to be. This tells us that by design the coins are underweight. You can only turn 1oz of .999 silver into a certain number of shapes and sizes due to only having a specific amount of material. You can only make your coin so big before you run out of metal. If you know what I mean? Like if I had 1 oz of .999 silver I couldn’t make a coin 1ft long and 1ft wide because I don’t have enough silver to do so. What China is doing is similar but reversed in that they’re intentionally making the measurements of the Panda smaller than a full troy oz and they do it in a less noticeable way. They know that they don’t need a full troy oz of silver to make the pandas the right size. They need a little bit less and that little bit less multiplied by millions of pandas is huge profits. Here is something else I wanted to show you. If individuals made profits doing things like this can you imagine a country doing it on a massive scale? China isn’t exactly known as the most trustworthy of nations. [ATTACH=full]1216001[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
