Hi. I've just got nice Kennedy half dollar. Weight 12,37g. I have another too. I bought it 10 years ago. Weight.. 12,61g. So? My scale is cheap but difference is .. hmmm.. quite big I think. Wikipedia says it should have 12,50g.
What do you think?

I checked the Weight Tolerances for this coin and it should be 12.5g +/- 0.25g. Both of your coins look to be in the acceptable range of weights.

First year coins, the planchets are usually off by a little right?

I didn't know about this tolerance. So maybe my coins are good.
