[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1724317, member: 15199"]I agree with Jloring above that it is within normal range of movement for the wear That extended tail of the "3" is a very thin portion of metal, and adherence of the zinc cladding to the steel core wasn't always good, allowing wear and counting machines to 'push' the tail around a little. I do remember reading that there were 2 different manufacturers of planchets during the year and a slightly different weight, but their tolerances overlapped so no one could identify coins today as being a 'type I' or a type 'II'.[/QUOTE]
