<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1800850, member: 19463"]I found a brass 50g weight that came with an old balance scale. It had drill marks on the bottom where it had been adjusted at the factory so I thought it might be more accurate. It weighs almost .5g less than the other one I have. Again considering the scale consistently gives the same results for the same coin, I think my next step will be to fool it in calibration so it matches the weight of coins I bought from a dealer I know has a better scale. An accurate weight for calibration will cost more than the scale being calibrated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
