Ken_3567 Pillar of the Community United States 651 Posts	Posted 04/14/2007 6:56 pm Wasn't sure which forum to stick this so I put it here. A friend of mine brought this back from Poland. It was so small for a modern coin I had to take a pic of it next to a U.S. cent and share with all here. Report this Post to the Staff

madspec Valued Member United States 376 Posts	Posted 04/14/2007 8:18 pm Good looking coin, not much smaller than a cent. How is the weight compared to the cent? madspec Report this Post to the Staff
Ken_3567 Pillar of the Community United States 651 Posts	Posted 04/14/2007 8:22 pm Not sure of the weight as I don't have a scale at home but it's about 2/3 the size of a cent and it's actually closer to a silver Three Cent piece in size. and yes I'm chuckling of the gross joke. good one avery Report this Post to the Staff

monster Valued Member United States 414 Posts	Posted 04/19/2007 09:16 am The mexican 5 cent is very small. Can someone compare this to us penny? Chinese old (1999 to 2001) one Jiao (10 cent or one dime) is aluminium coin and sightly small than us penny. You almost don't feel it on your hand. It might be the reason it was changed to steel coin, my guess. Report this Post to the Staff
