glenmorenee Valued Member United States 314 Posts	Posted 07/06/2023 5:29 pm Current auction on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/204382897999 It is a 2009 1 oz gold maple leaf. 2009 is common date for fakes. Is this weight disqualifying? Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/06/2023 6:22 pm I think the scale is showing the 'Avoirdupois' or US standard weight, but precious metals should be weighed in 'Troy' ounces. One Troy ounce is equal to 1.09714286 avoirdupois ounce. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!
