[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 1710605, member: 11521"]I don't understand the "at 7.5 grams" portion of your question. Based on what you posted above: The coin weighs 7.5000 grams. The fineness is 0.6400 which means that 64.00% of the weight of that coin is silver. 7.5000 grams X 0.6400 = 4.8000 grams. So the silver content of the coin is 4.8000 grams. Converting 4.8000 grams to troy ounces we get 0.15432 troy ounces. So the 1965 Austrian 10 Schilling coin in your question contains 0.15432 troy ounces of silver. Again, I don't understand the "at 31.10 grams" portion of your question. An ASE has a fineness of 0.999 which means it is 99.9% silver and 0.1% something else. The 1965 Austrian 10 Schilling coin in your question is 64% silver. Standard US silver coins are 90% silver. ASEs are 99.9% silver.[/QUOTE]
