Krukenberg,
Malgas,

0.995 kg of gold and 5g of protium

Actually less than that because only around 10% of the gold created this way (assuming a natural distribution of Hg isotopes) would be stable, so you’d get a bunch of β particles too. I don’t even know how Au-201 would act, and it would comprise 30% of the output.

Aurenkin,

Yeah I think there were some folks who thought about splitting the atom right? I forget who.

Anyway, now I am become wealth, buyer of worlds.

Hold up how much do all the protons you removed weigh? You get less than 1kg of gold at the end
