<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2185612, member: 26302&quot;]To further clarify, (sometimes Doug is a little too brief), only precious metal coins did they ever try to weight adjust. Copper coins, from the very beginning of coinage, was a token coinage. This means the stated value of the coin was always higher than the metal in the coin. Therefor, there literally has almost never been a reason to worry about weight control on copper coins.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I wonder if platinum coins in Russia ever had adjustment marks? IDK the answer, but to me the real answer is precious metals have these due to the nature of the value of the metal, non-precious metal coins do not since it did not really matter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
