"The weight was my big concern too. Thats why I was asking. On a side note, I paid $20 for the box of stuff."

Heck the 31S penny is worth that much and more wore slam out!! Good deal even if the two center is bogus.

The scale seems to be right on. I checked it on a couple 1oz rounds as well as some small cents. I will try to get a photo of the 31S Lincoln tomorrow. I'm playing single Dad tonight since my wife is working late.

the only way I can think of that would make it genuine is if the planchet was cut from a sheet intended for cent planchets. even then, the date looks odd to me.

That wouldn't be it because the Two Cent and the cent were the same alloy and I'm fairly sure the same thickness. So cut from cent strip should still give you the standard weight.
