Silver Christmas Round Shop

Question by allhailzeppelin: Question about the weight of some silver coins?
I'm a bit of a coin collector and got 4 very nice silver coins for Christmas. Two of them are one design and two are another. The two with one design say "1 oz fine silver" and the other two say "1 troy ounce .999 fine silver". I know fine and .999 are the same thing, but do the coins that say "1 oz" really mean 1 TROY ounce?

Best answer:

It is silver. Which is measured in troy ounces (31.1034768 grams) not avoirdupois ounces (28.349523125 g by definition.) To sell it otherwise would be fraud.
