What's up with this one? Started weighing all my LC's after reading the post about Weight Tolerances and found this. Any input would appreciated. Plated with something ?

The planchet was punched out of rolled-thick stock. Some of these rolled-thick copper-alloy cents can weigh over 4.2 grams.

That's grains John. If it were grams, I probably wouldn't be able to pick it up.

Hi 11997755 I sure hope you can pick up 56 grams since it equals 1.97 ounces
