Silver medals-—550 grams-—that’s well over one pound and is one heavy medal? It’s about 28 grams per OZ, call it 20 OZ’s. With silver at 27 bucks/ oz that would be well over 500 bucks just for the silver? Maybe “grams” is “grains”?-———Maybe the trophys come with hernia belts which will no doubt be taxed also? As medical devices Under Obamuzziecare?

Wrong ounces. Precious metals are measured in Troy Ounces. A Troy Ounce is 31.1034768 grams. 14.583 Troy ounces to the pound (453.6 grams).
Yes, an ounce of gold is heavier than an ounce of feathers...
