The coins year is 2017. Edited by Hellhound858 02/20/2018 07:13 am Report this Post to the Staff

Do a magnet test and check the diameter measurements. I've heard of coins weighing less but not more. Also check your scale with something you know is real, some times these things need to be adjusted. Report this Post to the Staff

Coininvest is a reliable seller of gold and silver so I don't think you should have any concerns. Report this Post to the Staff

Pokermandude Pillar of the Community Canada 1192 Posts	Posted 02/21/2018 8:18 pm Maples are always slightly heavy, so that even an abnormally light one will still be over a full troy ounce (31.1 grams). On the other hand, I have had legitimate 1 oz .999 silver bars weigh as little as 31.05 grams. Report this Post to the Staff
