[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 2949786, member: 4373"]Ok here are some results: Average weight range of 1 yang (1892 - 1898): 5.3g. Ranged from 5.19g to 5.52g. As of why the range is so large, I cannot explain unless there maybe be counterfeits that I failed to detect. 1/4 yang (1892 - 1896): 4.6g. Surprisingly the variance of this particular type is quite small from 4.45g to 4.66g. Did not include 1898 as there's just too mmuch speculation when it comes to possible counterfeits. 5 fun (1892 - 1902): 7.1g. Ranged from 6.41g to 7.22g 1 fun (1892 - 1896): 3.3g. Ranged from 3.2g to 3.4g Coins struck in Osaka mint had a much small weight variance within +- 0.05g, rarely exceeding 0.1g. I just realized how much I have collected through the years - it's enough to make some kind of interesting database should I choose to. That said, I think I've uploaded a fair amount of weight information together with the photos at omnicoin.[/QUOTE]
