RE <<Interesting that Pandas are both 30 grams and 1 ounce>>

it is 30gm. The missing 0.1gm making up the troy oz is a close-enough-for-officialdom-work seigniorage charge.

:0)))

The seignorage presumably goes towards funding for the

I think I got above right. Most folks on the street know the script better than I.

Or the seignorage just ends up w/ the Mint. But we should not begrudge because the pandas have a solid track record for numismatic gain that way outperforms gold itself.

I tend to buy panda / lesser bullion (eagles, buffalos, maple, koala, nugget, krugrands, etc etc) in a mix of 1:1 in some years and 9:1 in others.

1:1 for years of gold bull, because more pandas are minted out of the authorised mintage and therefore lesser gain in the future.

9:1 during years when gold is trash, because something like 25K pandas are minted out of the 600K (1-oz / 30gm versions) authorised and the numismatic zoom prove to be substantial in after market, even as all bullion are bought at spot + ~3.5% in the year that they are issued.

everything is a game.

Re <<Sometime before TEOTWAWKI prices will be quoted globally in grams only>>

Should contemplation-inducing TeoTwawKi happen, and folks have sight of mood-altering Darkest Interregnum, gold might not get quoted at all for a price is meaningless when the goods go unobtainium.
