<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2307517, member: 15199"]The official mint specs are 3.11 grams +/- 0.13 grams , so a fresh mint coin could weigh from 2.98 grams to 3.24 grams. Wear afterwards can slightly reduce, corrosion can also change, but usually within specs. Digital scales use software to estimate the last digit with a rounding function. A scale should have 0.000 or 3 digits after the decimal to be accurate on the second digit after the decimal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
