bishftl Pillar of the Community United States 1022 Posts	Posted 08/21/2012 5:48 pm i was just going through all my proofs and heard an odd sounding one. it is a 1988s AU and shows no major wear and is very thin compared to normal proofs. it only weighs 9g. could it be on a wrong planchet? how could I tell?
