[QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 7780756, member: 44615"]One is .16 grams overweight and the other is .22 grams overweight. Both are struck on thicker than normal planchets. They are considered Rolled Thick planchets. Definition: Coin metal strip is sometimes rolled too thick. The resulting blanks, and the coins derived from them, are thicker and heavier than normal. The first is slightly out of tolerance and the second is way out of tolera3 and can be considered a more desirable error. Has nothing to do with coincidence. The issue can occur on any year and mint.[/QUOTE]
