Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 02/26/2018 9:15 pm @SM30, with a target mass of 3.11 g, an allowable tolerance of 0.13 g, and a smidge of wear, I'd say that your coin is still within the range of what might be expected.

And you're coin is not uncirculated so it has some wear. So most likely it was within tolerance when it was made. Even if it wasn't, it would've been so close to tolerance that it would not have any additional premium value. Report this Post to the Staff
