just went through everyones post with a number in mind. thought I was all good to post it then the very last post I read Billy 1.42 nooooooooooo.
My new calculations put it at 1.48g
lock it in eddie
 
Thanks guys for the great competition and thanks to whoever made the donation.
We've put a lot of effort into this. It's really quite technical so hopefully we got it right. After printing out the image we had to carefully cut them out, weigh each one individually then of course work out the specific gravity of photo paper and do a calculation compared to the estimated purity of the gold.

The result is 2.7g precisely.

Ps: If there's some discrepancy in the scales and we don't win we'd like to have the little green crystal in the pan please :p
 
Thank you DWT for the amazing donation. We all owe you a beer !!!!! :cool: :cool:
Also thank you to the GD for putting in the time to organize the comp for the forum.
My guess.....1.91grams
