    Hi, if it is real is will weight 110g, if not it will be lighter. Does it have a yuan denomination?

    I have a one ounce silver coin like this ... weighs 15.5 grams instead of 31.1 grams.. i got a full refund but its confirmation there are many fakes out there.

    weighing it should give the answer.

    cheers.

    These were fairly popular during and after the Olympics, and also during the Shanghai World Expo.

    I haven't seen any problems with these bars in China. But then again, anything of value is likely to be eventually counterfeited.

    But your bar looks pretty nice :)
