This is the time of year for giving so I decided to have a simple contest. First person to guess the weight to the nearest gram (spoiler: it's not 3  ) will receive this magnificent piece and a .900 silver US coin of my choosing!  One guess per person. I will try to guide with hints along the way.   Good Luck! In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024

I think I see your tactic Earle, but by "good" I meant close.

I said at the beginning that it is not 3 grams, and any guess that is not rounded to a gram is superfluous and will be deemed invalid per the original rules (the ONLY exception being guessing the exact weight to the tenth of a gram, but I thought including tenths would be ridiculous in this case and that would be a very unlikely guess).
Some seem to be on the right track...
