    What a fantastic little coin these are, found my way into silver stackers through these and they are great for kids wanting to become stackers too.

    Now considering each coin wieghs 13.28 gm if I was to buy a kilo of these coins would I get 75 or 76 coins?

    75 (technically 75.3) - If you buy from Ainslie for instance they'll drop off the 0.3 coins lol - very slight extra margin for them there

    But if you were to buy 3Kg you should get 226 coins not 225

    The Royal Australian Mint in Canberra struck over 36 million

    Many millions remain in existence
