If you are talking about the fake bullion on ebay, it's extremely thin.

In electronics, a "mil" is 1/1000th of an inch.

Troy oz 100 mills 999 gold?

This is a common marking on gold-plated items that indicates the item is plated with a layer of 100 mills of pure gold. However, the actual amount of gold in the item is only a minimal fraction of that, often just a few microns thick. It is not considered a meaningful measurement of gold content and is primarily used for decorative or promotional purposes.

How many inches is 100 mills in thickness?

100 mills is equivalent to 0.1 inches, as one mill is equal to one-thousandth of an inch. Therefore, to convert mills to inches, you divide the number of mills by 1000. So, 100 mills divided by 1000 equals 0.1 inches.


What is 100 mills silver?

Those '100 mills .999 silver' are usually copper bars coated with a thin silver layer. Strictly speaking the description is correct, it specifies that this plating is pure silver and that it's 100 mills thick. So it's not a solid silver bar. They are just art items, novelty stuff that cost maybe $1 total to produce. The coating is so thin the actual amount of silver is maybe one gram.

What does 100 mills 999 fine silver mean?

They *are* clad in 0.999 silver, but the real question is how thick is the cladding. Part of the problem is that "100 Mills" has absolutely no legal or engineering meaning - they may as well be stamped "100 Rhubarbs". 'Mil' (with one letter 'l') is a term used in engineering (in the UK at least) to mean 1/1000 of an inch - but if the cladding were actually 100 *mils* thick, that would be 1/10 inch (about 2.5mm); seeing as a 1oz bar of REAL silver is only about 2.5mm thick, that would mean that one of these '100 Mills' bars would have to be clad in TWO ounces of silver. Obviously they're not, or the producers would go bust very quickly. If we assume that 'Mill' is actually short for 'Millionth' (of an inch), it makes far more sense. The thickness of cladding would then be 0.0001 inches (0.0025mm) - which is about normal for electro-plated items. Each side of the bar would require 1/1000 of an ounce to plate, so the whole bar would take 1/500 oz. At current prices ($30/oz) that means that each bar contains about 6 cents worth of silver.
