Tips
- Precious metal prices change daily — check the current spot price before estimating costs.
- Troy ounces (used for precious metals) are heavier than regular ounces: 1 troy oz = 31.1g vs 1 oz = 28.3g.
- When buying wire by weight, remember that thinner gauges cost more per gram due to drawing costs.
- Sterling silver is about 7.5% copper — it's slightly lighter than fine silver.
