Is there a name for that type of error? I'm having trouble finding out more information about them.
Few test results- tried 5 known bronze and 5 known zinc cents on the metal detector (Garrett GTA-500) and all 5 bronze were at "9"; the zincs were...
Thanks- I knew that the mint targets 3.11 g but the question is more, how much variance do they allow? Which Mike said was at least 0.12 g since...
Actually I do have one- good suggestion- I'll give that a try.
To be honest, I have trouble audibly distinguishing between the two. Is there a way to produce the sound without potentially damaging it? Drop...

Out of curiosity, what are some of the best (or should I say worst!) examples of this that you can think of?
Are you saying they released both silver clad and cupronickel clad for circulation? Or that they made silver clad via the same process and sold...
This thread brings up something that I've been thinking about recently that I find to be so unfortunate: that the possibility theft dictates that...
