[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 3651766, member: 78298"]Tolerance is +/- .13 2.98-3.24 Used to be the same for zinc, but someone here said it was changed to .10 so that would be 2.40-2.60 for zinc. At 2.82 it could be a slightly thinner rolled planchet on the copper. Photo of both sides and usually you can tell the difference between copper or zinc. It is not on a Canadian planchet. They have their own mint and a 1982 Canadian is 2.5 bronze. (We didn't make coins for them, as we do other countries.)[/QUOTE]
