Do these 1g Silver coins exist?

[mik]

I got a handful of these QEII 1 gram silver coins about 3 or 4 years ago from (don't laugh) AliExpress. Most likely fakes, but I'm wondering if any such coin ever existed as a real silver coin.

I've searched the web but couldn't find any reference to them. I took one into a jewellers and he said they were silver, but he didn't test them.

They were sold in multiples of 5 I think, and worked out about £1.40 a coin including postage. There's no denomination like you get on Britannias. If there was it would be very small...I figure Britannia £2 / 31.1035 = 0.0643014452 about 6½ pence.

They're stashed away and too hard for me to bother gaining access so I'm using images of these taken on my old phone (hence the poor quality)

I'm a newbie so if this is a daft enquiry I beg your forgiveness

Sorry, I don't know the answer, but as soon as you mentioned AliExpress, I prepared a visual 😊

A pea, 1g silver, a grain of basmati rice.

Further discoveries:

This 1g silver round is 0.5 inches in diameter and 0.04 inches thick.

Yeah Roy, they're tiny coins. I need to dig them out again and get accurate dimensions. I'm sure they're exactly 1 gram in weight and non-magnetic, and I suppose there's some formula that exists to calculate mass. I'm just curious to know if they were official Royal Mint products and what mintage? Maybe they're silver but were uniquely a Chinese creation. I remember at the time AliExpress were selling all sorts of 1 gram bars but these were the only ones that resembled British coinage.

I saw them on Ali a while ago and tried to order some as a curiosity - the site wouldn't let me because i was in the UK (?).

I assumed that they were fantasy coins. 

They appear to have used the £1 coin design and, with no denomination on them, are definitely not 'fakes' because there is no official coin matching these. 

Using the queens likeness is a bit dodgy though !

I like them as a curiosity. If they turn out to be real 999 Silver I will love them.
