Ok, show me your heaviest coin and your lightest coin. Belgium 1996 20 francs 85g  Finland 1969 1 penni  Divide the heaviest by the lowest for your score 85 / 0.45 = 188.888 P,s, I'm not sure the figures are correct on Numista for the 20F. Highest score wins. Edited by triggersmob

Heh heh heh heh... yall in trouble! I'll wait a bit before my contribution. By the way, triggersmob, I'm seeing a weight of 8.5 g for a Belgium 1996 20 francs. 85 g is more than 3 Morgan dollars. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

bd raises the bar! Still waiting for jbuck to "weigh" in with some sort of Ike flimflammery.
And bd, you're lucky that my old age and poor eyesight has led me to ignore those tiny bits of metal. But I have no fear of prevailing for my heart is pure.
