Thanks all!

Simple challenge - Post your heaviest coin in the lightest common coinage metal - Aluminum! Heaviest weight in grams is the winner. In case of a tie, first to post wins. If you don't have a scale, go with Numista.

French Polynesia 5 francs
3.80g

Good point - coins or coin equivalent only. Things like notgeld are acceptable, but it must have a face value and be something that you could reasonably expect to pay taxes or a parking ticket with (at least at the time of issue)

I don't have pictures of most of my world coins. For what it's worth, though, I have a bunch of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/174618454200
Probably 2" in diameter and 3-5 g. They are not, however, legal tender.
