    I doubt .999 would have held up in such a format..

    Probably not, but why call it 'investment-grade' in that case?

    That would be $499 USD.
    $705 AUD
    So not that interesting...
    A cool thing, that I won't be buying.

    And it's .925 silver.. Although I assume their 20oz is figure is the ASW so the thing would weigh slightly more.

    The website states "hand-crafted of solid .925 silver - actual weight is 21.75+ Troy ounces" so they may have compensated for the purity by adding a bit more weight, so perhaps there actually is a total of 20 Troy ounces of pure silver contained in the figurine.

    A roll of 20 Eagles costs about $360-US on eBay, so the markup on this is not outrageous.

    Most jewelry sold in shops will command a much higher premium, relative to the spot price of the metal it contains.

    Although this trinket looks a bit silly for my taste it might be a worthy gift for the Silver stacker who has everything.
