<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3217660, member: 19463"]While the mint claims 5.00g, weighing a bunch of nickels will show that last 0 is not consistent. Obviously minor wear will explain some 4.96g coins but I found a few over 5.00g when I tried this. The big problem is that no cheap scales I have seen allows you to adjust the scale to make a 5.00g master show 5.00 on the display.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
