<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 2006333, member: 39&quot;]Could be due to silver and gold being used in older coins. Germany&#039;s 1873 coinage law specified a tolerance of 0.2 to 0.5 percent for the gold and silver coins. Nobody actually cared about the weight of copper pieces then. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Today&#039;s euro coins may have a 3.0 percent tolerance per piece, but a lot/bag of 100 coins for example should not have more than 1.0 percent. The recommendation of the European Commission says &quot;between -2% and +1%&quot;, I think.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
