Flook Valued Member United States 172 Posts	Posted 05/21/2011 10:09 pm I was wondering if anyone else saw this.....apmex is selling 4 oz 2011 american silver eagles.....the reverse of the eagle says 1/4 pound, but really the weight is 1/3 troy pound? also they mention that it is not an official u.s. mint product, so who made it?......just wondering what this item is all about and whether its a waste of money or something that could potentially be a neat collector piece down the road.......let me know your thoughts http://www.apmex.com/Product/59139/...99_Fine.aspx Report this Post to the Staff

bryan1234 Valued Member United States 463 Posts	Posted 05/21/2011 10:23 pm personally a waste, I would rather buy 4 ASE for what there asking over spot per oz. Hard sell down the road. Also a regular pound has 16 oz while a troy pound is 12 troy oz Report this Post to the Staff

The confusion over oz/# is enough to avoid them. Report this Post to the Staff
