<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silentnviolent, post: 1812624, member: 8797&quot;]There were 1999 statehood quarters made from experimental planchets. They weigh heavy. (5.9-6.5g, as opposed to mint specs of 5.65g) I believe 15 have been found so far. I think I remember reading about it on Fred Weinberg&#039;s site. They have an off color...
