<p>[QUOTE="macintosh11235, post: 1896778, member: 31066"]You probably won't be able to tell by weight if it's a fake on a 90% Silver planchet. There isn't enough of a difference to be able to tell between the alloys on a circulated coin. If you had the coin in hand, I'd say check the surfaces for signs that it may have been cast. These would have been struck as proofs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
