This Technical Report specifies an acceptance sampling system of single sampling plans both for inspection by attributes and for inspection by variables.

(For the purposes of this Technical Report, a nonconforming article is a precious metal article containing less than the nominal proportion by weight of the precious metal). The variables plans generally require smaller sample sizes than the attributes plans, but require the precious metal content of all the sampled articles to exceed the nominal content by at least a
