<p>[QUOTE="SilverLoot, post: 1369122, member: 35969"]Well, the silver eagles weigh 31.101 grams. And they're made of 99.93% silver, and 0.07% copper, right? So, taking the 31.101 and multiplying it by 0.9993 gives 31.0792293 grams of asw. (and 0.0217707 grams of copper) Did the same deal for the maples, and well you saw the math. I'm sure at this scale they'll all vary a little bit, but the idea is that the 0.06% difference in silver purity between the two coins can add up to some real value when you get into large quantities. Can you dig it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
