    Sorry, I have to ask.

    Why would one look at this tolerance?

    Oh error?
  • Someone is planchet hunting.......GO MAN GO!!!!
  • I have been weighing rolls of pres bucks looking for under weight ones that may contain a Quarter planchet.......for the most part the weights are consistent, we got some today that were erratic so we starting weighing some of the coins.......Quite a spread...for example the low so far is 121.55 grains, the high is 125.40 grains, I'm a jeweler using a diamond scale.
  • Open them up man, don't just weigh them. I want to know if there are quarters in there man. Come on , be the first. Well maybe the first, I'm looking too.image
