well, 19.3 for gold and 19.5 for tungsten, as i recall. There was a "fake gold" ring that was busted in china. It was reported as chinese made bullion, and there is NO evidence of this crossover. The article linked basically sounds like the disjointed, unconnected ravings of a madman, based on "Secret documents from an unnamed source". Also, the original plot wasnt producing fake bars. they were milling out the bottom of the stamped gold bars, and replacing the milled out portion with tungsten slugs so the weight was the same.
