# yep
but I was using the old caveat I stuck in the post of the 1% margin of error (I made sure I covered my ass before posting) and you can't deny silvers association with the moon in ancient wisdom. thought that was a nice coincidence.

the average of 107 and 109 is 108 though ;)

# A 1% margin of error would mean that 108 could, acutally, be 107 or 109 and still quallify.
And 107Ag is slightly more abundant that 109 Ag

# you certainly know how to split a hair
silver weight is actually 107.8682 which is closer to 108 than 107
