<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NumisRookie, post: 2296806, member: 76195&quot;]Ok, I weighed the coin. I also weighed 49 other coins and this is what I found. </p><p><br /></p><p>The coin in question as a weak strike/die adjustment/PMD weighed 4.92 grams. </p><p><br /></p><p>The average of all the nickels was 5. 0134.</p><p><br /></p><p>The heaviest nickel weighed a whopping 5.12 grams. </p><p><br /></p><p>My coin, that started this, was the lightest coin and was 1.84% lighter than the average weight. </p><p><br /></p><p>The heaviest coin was 2.14% higher than the average. It looks completely normal. </p><p><br /></p><p>The other 49 coins were picked at total random from my change jar. </p><p><br /></p><p>The fact that my coin looks like it was ground down and is the lightest of all the nickels tells me that the most likely cause is PMD. </p><p><br /></p><p>I accept it now but it still baffles me. Thanks for all the input. And thank you Mike Diamond for so much time out of your busy life and patience with a newbie.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
