<p>[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3006899, member: 27832"]Here's an interesting note on the "rose" gold coin: it's 85% gold, instead of the usual 90%, and weighs 7.931 g instead of 8.359 g. That brings it to 0.217 ozt of gold, instead of the standard 0.242.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, it's got 10% less gold by weight than a normal gold $5 commemorative. And yet, the pricing table doesn't seem to have a separate column for it, only the usual column for $5 commemoratives. Wonder if it'll have a special price, or whether it'll be the standard price, effectively increasing the premium? If the latter, will any of that surplus go toward the charity?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
