[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 21928031, member: 78298"]Since that scale only goes to tenths, there is a wider margin for what the actual weight could be.

A 40% silver wouldn't show copper on the rim. I think you need to weigh the coin on a more delicate well calibrated scale, to get a more accurate weight. But I see copper on the edge.[/QUOTE]
