So normally I don't cast 10 oz gold bars but I had enough in this week that I decided why not!
Even though I work with the stuff every day it still amazes me that when compared to silver almost the same size is almost twice the amount.
A great lesson in specific gravity/density of metals
Anyway the silver bar is one of the 5 oz I produce, And the gold is the bar form gold I produce, Most often I do 2 oz and 5 oz gold bars or I do the 1/10 oz gold coins, and the silver bars in 1 oz to 10 oz.
the other pic is just close ups.
Testing via XRF as always shows and certifies 999 fine
The silver bar is what is heavy btw in the scale picture, I always make my silver bars just a little bit over weight for good business practice. The gold is 10.005 ozt.
