I just purchased this scale so I know it works. Do you guys have any idea? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97511 Posts	Posted 05/09/2021 8:33 pm The quarters should weigh in at 5.7 grams. with a tolerance above and below that weight (I forget what the tolerance is) but your coins fit in perfectly.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21635 Posts	Posted 05/09/2021 9:01 pm The mint tolerance on a quarter is +-.19g so anything between 5.48g and 5.86g is acceptable. Yours fall well within this range. If it was silver it would weigh around 6.25g Report this Post to the Staff
