I have a 1967 Quarter that weighs 5.85 grams. Would welcome some thoughts on this.

With the +- tolerance of .19g, it is within spec.

Probably not my best picture, but my magnifier doesn't go high enough for a full shot. All my other quarters from around that time tend to come in lower than normal, likely due to wear. Just found it odd that this one comes it at around 5.85 to 5.86.

I saw a reference to a 1977 quarter that weighed 5.85 due to having 40% silver content, but nothing on a 1967 quarter so wondered.

If you are wondering if your 1967 is silver, try the tissue test.
