I figured the difference was from wear which the coin has. A full uncirculated coin would or should weigh 6.77.

I have some VG Morgans that have a loss of less than 1g and the surface area is much greater.</b></font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">&quot;John&quot;...</font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4"><font size="4">It could be my scale or yours that off and I&#039;ll look into mine but a lot of the South American coins lose a lot of their weight. For example the ship wreck coins 8 reals can weigh as little as 21 grams even though they were struck at 26.9 grams and PCGS , NGC and ANACS still grades them. Standing liberty quarters can lose as much as 2 grams of silver. I shouldn&#039;t have posted the weight Krause publishing stated due to the wear. If your not happy with coin I&#039;m more than happy to take it back. I stand by everything I sell. </font></font></p><p><font size="4"><font size="4"><br /></font></font></p><p><font size="4"><font size="4">Me..</font></font></p><p><font size="4"><font size="4"><br /></font></font></p><p><font size="4"><font size="4">I give up.</font></font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4"></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
