<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1499460, member: 15199&quot;]Actually the weight is not the best way to separate. The Silver clad is 24.592 but +/-&nbsp; 0.984 grams, whereas, the nickel clad is 22.68 +/- 0. 9 grams, so an official minimum of a silverclad is 23.608 and the max of a nickel clad is 23.58, the bare difference of .028 of a gram, not much and then that is for an uncirculated, so wear would change the numbers.&nbsp; A circulated silver clad could drop down into the NC$ and be missed. The tissue trick usually works, and of course if one is just using it as a 40% bullion , the buyer will probably just test with acid soluions.</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way the tolerance was officially defined as +/- 4% of specified weight.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
