NumisMattyUk Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2217 Posts	Posted 06/08/2007 6:33 pm No, "mass" as in the scientific term for the more common word "weight". Report this Post to the Staff
GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 06/08/2007 7:05 pm I don't know of a website that lists in detail all coins but I'm sure someone will come along that has a link. I'd recommend getting a book with the info. That way it's always in front of you for quick reference and you have a Lot more information then just mass. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16826 Posts	Posted 06/09/2007 07:56 am Tony Clayton's website (the second of SuperDave's links) has a good compilation of British denominations with weights to the nearest 0.1 gram. If you want more accurate weights for these, or weights for other world coins, I'm not sure where to look. The Krause catalogues and their NumisMaster website have weights for precious metal coins but not base metal ones, except where there are catalogued varieties where the weight is a key difference. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 06/09/2007 08:45 am I believe I got that link from you, Sap. Methinks we should get you a custom title along the lines of "Official CCF Reference Source." Report this Post to the Staff
NumisMattyUk Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2217 Posts	Posted 06/09/2007 7:40 pm ^Superdave; first one's just an advert, second one is good but I found it first :P Quite a useful site; but I need world coins too - I find going out and buying another book right now to be excessive and to smack of consumer-victmhood. Thanks also Sap; I only really want web pages because I'm too poor to buy another electronic scales after the last ones I bought off ebay broke whilst changing the batteries.

Click through some of them when you have time to browse. Report this Post to the Staff
