Ive been looking on ebay for a scale....well there are a lot out there. Can anyone recommend a good one thats accurate? Thanks in advance
Don't know about accurate, but I purchased one last night for $0.01 and $7.42 shipping from eBay. A digital scale for less than $10 delivered. We'll see. See HERE.
for the absolute best prices online google "old will knot" anything accurate to .1 or .01 gram is good for coins.
Basically agree with previous posts. .1 gram is good for most stuff. As far as accuracy, just keep uncirculated cent, nickel, dime, quarter and half sitting around. Those are a known weight. So even if you get a real cheapo one and it's not too accurate, you can weigh a known quantity and then compare to the unknown. You didn't specify how much money you want to spend. If you are willing to spend a bit, then others will have to guide you!
You always want a coin scale that will weigh to within 0.01 grams. A tenth of a gram 0.1gm is not close enough.
Puchased mine from eBay for a $0.01 and $7.48 s/h and just got it today. They actually ran out of the model that I ordered and gave me an upgrade. Excellent seller and I would highly recommend. Great scale! Finally, threw out my old popsicle stick scale.
