 * It would be nice (but not required for DYK) if the type of "ounce" could be identified so that a metric conversion could be provided. It is most likely to be a troy ounce, since it's used to measure silver, but the source cited in the article does not specify. --Orlady (talk) 17:24, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
