Precious metals are measured in troy weights. A troy ounce is 31.10 grams. In the US the ounce measurement for anything but a precious metal, if not noted otherwise, is actually the avoirdupois ounce. It is 28.35 grams. So an ounce of silver is a little less than 3 grams heavier than an ounce of lead.
An avoirdupois pound consists of 16 avoirdupois ounces and is 453.6 grams. A troy pound consists of 12 troy ounces and is 373.2 grams.
I am not going to debate with you at this hour my fren.
I just did an Internet search for: How much does a 100 oz bar of Silver weigh?
Time to go to bed lol.
Well, gunna keep us in suspense? How much did it weigh?
