I don't think I've ever had an underweight one of those; if I did, I didn't notice.

How about 1 gram or more underweight, date match, or at least 5 grams overweight.

Quote: I don't think I've ever had an underweight one of those; if I did, I didn't notice. I'm always on the lookout for extreme weight variations of 5 kopeks. This one is weird because it feels like a regular coin, and not a hockey puck like my 64.3 g example. It's fun to see people's reaction when they hold one right after the other knowing they are the same type.

How about any Bahamas coin with a fish or animal with "fish" in its name?
