The tolerance for the Copper cents is 0.13 grams by the US Mint but that coin shows a lot of wear so I would says its all natural wear and tear.

 

But that still off another 0.16 corrent wear and tear

 

It looks porous, corroded. Between that and the wear, your weight seems spot on.

 

Same here. About normal.

 

When in doubt, calibrate the scale. The portable ones like you show, and also I have , can if moved, get off calibration. I usually calibrate if I get a weight out of limits to be sure. Jim

 

There's a lot of wear on that coin and it could be a thinner than normal planchet but it's not enough to make a difference.

 

Heres a 1920d i think in worse shape
