[QUOTE="R_rabbit, post: 3496263, member: 101793"]Hi everyone:) I know I haven’t posted any coins in a while (working on the minting and errors thread:) ) but seeing the Ike dollar post reminded me of the 50 Ikes I bought a while ago. Still have not had a thorough examination of them but I did weigh them and put them in a nice coin booklet. New scale,works great! This one in particular was over weight. It weighs in at 23.12-13grams Imho, I think that it is within weight tolerance and is not a silver Ike. Let me know your thoughts! Thank you! Ike dollar tolerance Weight Clad: 22.680 grams Silver: 24.592 grams Weight Tolerance (+/-) Clad: 0.907 grams Silver: 0.984 grams Ike dollar 40% or clad 8 grains +/- .52 grams This is the only clad coin not held to the same standard as the silver versions.[/QUOTE]
