wz1f Valued Member United States 224 Posts	Posted 01/14/2012 2:39 pm The coin on the right is what I think is the brass planchet. Any help with the gram weight would be helpful. I am reading 2.51 on the coin on the left and 2.59 on the brass looking coin. Thank you. Edited by wz1f 01/14/2012 4:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

wz1f Valued Member United States 224 Posts	Posted 01/14/2012 8:44 pm Mainman750. Hi Roger. Now that weight is only for a 1983 P isn't it?. I just got my gram scale today in the mail, and it is working out just great. So now I have my new microscope and scales so I am ready. haha. Now I need a good education. Let me know if it is the 1983p that needs to be 3.10grams. Report this Post to the Staff
