<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lawdogct, post: 43795, member: 1476&quot;]I think you answered your own question <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> 5.67 grams (cirulation) vs. 6.35 grams (silver proof)</p><p><br /></p><p>If you don&#039;t have a scale that will measure down to grams, then a simple test is to use a ruler and a pencil.&nbsp; Place the coin in question at one end of the ruler, one of the other standard coins from the role at the other and balance the ruler on the pencil.</p><p><br /></p><p>Couple of questions for you:</p><p><br /></p><p>Was this a mixed role of circulated coins, meaning different dates in the same role? Or new role of the same date/state from the bank?</p><p><br /></p><p>If they are all new coins,on the faces of the coin, is the background field polished looking, like a mirror, or more velvety like the other coins in the role?</p><p><br /></p><p>At any rate, do your best not to get finger prints on the coin, until you know what you have.&nbsp; Fingerprints will lower any potential value.&nbsp; If there are already there, DO NOT wipe them off <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
