What weight is the heaviest ASE you have? All of the ASEs I have are overweight by ~.1 gram. *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***Edited by 0xDA71D

That's about correct. ASEs are required to be *at least* one troy ounce, so their spec is just a bit above it.

^Yep^ I have a bunch in my SDB and the ones I've weighed in the past were a tad overweight.

I've a Maple that's +0.3g over. Too bad I don't have 100 of them. I'd be close to a freebie.

 I have over a thousand ASE's and have never had the desire to weigh any of them. |

My 3 weeks in circulation ASE weighs in at 31.2 grams.  My 3 weeks in circulation with other coins plus 1 month in a pocket by itself weighs in at 26.6 grams.  My MNS medal overstruck on a slicked Peace dollar even after being worn slick before being restruck and then an additional 3 years in a pocket by itself still weighs in at 26.6 grams  |

You differentiate between a pocket piece and a circulated ASE...how does one get a 3 week circulated ASE? |

How accurate are your scales? If they only show one decimal place then an ASE that shows 3.2 grams may only be .047 grams over weight. (1 trooy oz is 31.103 grams. If it is .047 grams over that is 31.15 grams and scales rounds it to 31.2) Edited by Conder101

I carried my pocket piece for 3 years by itself and the Ellis Island for 1 month by itself. 3 weeks ago I threw them all in the same pocket so the ASE had been in "circulation" for 3 weeks. |
