    Hello there every one, can someone please help me out here. I was CRH and came across this 1963. I noticed it was a little lite. So I put it on my scale, and it read 2.4 Grams. I put another 63 on the scale. I read 3.1 grams. What do you think is going on here??

    This one looks to have been acid treated and a lot of the copper was eaten away.

    The eroded surfaces and reduced thickness rims indicate a soaking in a corrosive material.
