You list your precious metal rates in ounces. Are those Troy or Avoirdupois ounces?
Answer
Troy Ounces. Troy Ounces are the standard of measure for precious metals and gemstones all around the world. Avoirdupois ounces are used for pretty much everything else, and are the "normal" ounces with which most people are familiar.
