So what do you all think is going on here? I have 2 Indian cents with the same date. One weighs 3
1 and the other is between 2.7 to 2.8.
Does anyone know of different fonts or varieties for this year? The heavier coin has the thicker ( I think normal) wreath.

Is the lighter cent in weight on the left?

I'd say possibly due to just wear.

The one on the left appears to be darkened by environmental damage, while the one on the right may have been lightened by cleaning. Neither looks quite natural.
