Previously we established that the Nickel 21.2 mm not 19.53 mm like what KM stated.
Now, I found another difference between KM and Red Book:
1976 Half Dollar, KM 11.10 gram versus Red Book 11.34 gram.
Which one correct?

Correct weight on a 1976 CuNi clad Kennedy is 11.34 grams. The weight for the 40% silver clad Bicentennial Kennedy is 11.5 grams but no half dollars are supposed to weigh 11.1 grams.

Thank you for the information.
Those 11.10 gram, I got it from 20010 KM catalog.
How can somebody make a catalog with many errors?

Lack of caring. But good on you for verifying and finding out for your own knowledge. That's one of the many differences between a numismatist and a "collector."

Believe me there are a LOT more errors in the KM catalog. One reason is because they are understaffed F&W publications has been cutting the Krause staff and not replacing the ones that retire. The KM standard catalogs are now compiled by a staff of about three people. It isn't a case of not caring.
