<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CaptHenway, post: 5289276, member: 13813&quot;]I helped write the Coin World Almanac back in the 70&#039;s. I even updated that chart for it from something that Ed Fleischmann had previously prepared.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1943 steel cents had two semi-official weights. They started out making them at 41.5 grains (2.69 grams) and then switched to 42.5 grains (2.754 grams.) Either had a tolerance of 2 grains (0.13 gams.) So, anything from 2.56 to 2.88 grams was OK.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
