From NGC's price guide: 1987 SILVER PANDA 10 YUAN PF UC Fineness: 0.999 ASW: 0.9988oz Meaning total weight is about 31.1g Also many ebay listings say 1 oz .999 But the certificate for the 5oz/1oz set says "92.5 percent in composition, containing 1 ounce of pure silver", meaning total weight is about 33.6g Panda America's website has "Precious metal content is 1 oz. of 925 fine silver" What is correct? Would someone who owns one mind weighing it and posting the weight? Free 1966 round 50 to the first person who engraves the correct weight/purity on their coin
I would go with what Panda America says. The 1987 also has a 5oz partner. http://www.pandaamerica.com/silver_pandas.asp?sresult.asp?page=1&keyword=Panda Silver&sortby 1987 Sterling Panda This is the only Panda coin issued by China that was minted from sterling silver. Precious metal content is 1 oz. of 925 fine silver in Proof quality. It was also the first silver Panda coin with a diameter of 40 mm.
Thank you yennus. Still "1 oz. of 925 fine silver" is ambiguous to me. It could be 31.105 gramos or 33.625 gramos ...
