JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21606 Posts	Posted 11/09/2021 1:08 pm The target weight of 1970 cent is 3.11g with an accepted tolerance of + - .13g so your cent is just at the edge of the accepted weight. Copper can change many colours depending on the environment it has been exposed to so colouring does not mean a whole lot. Report this Post to the Staff
