kylecolb Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 09/15/2011 4:00 pm is 26.61 g close enough for a Morgan dollar that probably grades at VF-EF? My BU 1899 weighs in at 26.64 or I guess at what weight should one become concerned? Edited by kylecolb 09/15/2011 4:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff

kylecolb Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 09/15/2011 10:10 pm Thank you! But what is the % error I should look for? At what weight +/- should I be concerned on legitimacy of the coin? Report this Post to the Staff
