BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4594 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 09:40 am Too many beers and bags of pork rinds? How does it compare with other quarters, esp in diameter and thickness. Have you checked the scale? -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 09:49 am it is possible to be experimental planchet because there are some Experimental Planchets that weigh in that range but are on the 1999 DE, PA, CT, GA and NJ State Quarters and they are slightly thicker Edited by OcalaFlorida 12/29/2014 09:51 am Report this Post to the Staff

OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 10:44 am I though the weight was 5.67 grams? I could be wrong Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 12/30/2014 1:01 pm Coop errored. The coppernickel clad is 5.67 grams, and the 90% silver versions are 6.25 grams. Mint tolerances would allow a clad piece to go up to 5.9 grams and still be within tolerance. Report this Post to the Staff
