<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tommyc03, post: 3051505, member: 17665&quot;]Last night I decided to go through one Tupperware container of 1983 P cents for a weight check ( I still have another of 1983 D ). I counted out 200 coins. A full 80% came in at 2.8 grams each. The rest from 2.5-2.7. ( So, I know my scale is okay ) It seems a bit odd that the company sending/selling the stock to the Mint would be sending over weight stock to such a high degree. If the Mint is buying this stock at a certain price intending to make coins at a 2.5 weight, would the company making the stock not be losing money by selling over weight stock? And is/was the case of more quality control problems at the Mint? I have not done any modern coins to check to see if this was just a one year issue. Just curious and looking for your insight. Thanks.&nbsp; Tom[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
