<p>[QUOTE=&quot;davidh, post: 527880, member: 15062&quot;]I can&#039;t see why you are questioning what Jello has said.</p><p><br /></p><p>He used a calibrated scale to weigh a 1909 cent and it weighed 3.11 grams which is the correct weight, serving to further verify the correct calibration of the scale.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then he weighed the 50 Cents in a single roll finding 40 to weigh 2.627 grams each, 9 to weigh 2.633 grams each and 1 which weighed 2.411 grams.</p><p><br /></p><p>We know the standard for a modern zinc/copper Cent is 2.5 grams.&nbsp; Therefore Jello has 40 Cents that are ~0.13 grams heavy and 1 that is ~0.1 gram light.&nbsp; Why should that information be disputed?</p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t been able to find the weight tolerances for the modern cents but I don&#039;t think +/- 0.1 grams may be unusual or much out of spec.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
