<p>[QUOTE="Tyler, post: 1612252, member: 32319"]I was bored today and thought it would be a good idea to look at my collection. I was comparing two different year eagles that I have. I noticed that every older eagle weighed significantly more than recent date eagles. For example 1989s weighed .2-.4 grams over(used 1989s because I had more than one). The 2011 eagles weighed .05-.1 gram over(used 2011s because I had more than one). Every coin tested was BU. Also, I noticed many design changes between the two years. I tried researching this and there was no information available. Below is an image of two eagles side by side showing the changes between the years. I do not know when the design changed however these were the years that I personally had and compared. Images of eagles are stock photos and not my own.</p><p>[ATTACH]228224.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
