<p>[QUOTE="Rhazada, post: 4298804, member: 111630"]I greatly appreciate the tolerance information, that does help a lot. And that is fair, it could very well be that my scale is simply inaccurate, I do need to find my calibration weight/purchase a new one. Personally I was surprised the morgan and trade I weighed fell well within expected weights and tolerance levels, while other coins weighed less with greater wear. That still stymies me a bit if my scale is off by up to 0.5g. </p><p><br /></p><p>But that aside, I do not know the tolerance of this series of gold bullion coins, but I’ll venture a guess at around 33.5 grams, due to assumed standard weight around 33.931 (thanks google). And I will also voice that I have never seen a worn bullion coin like this before, and certainly surprised it was acquired from the mint. How off was I? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
