General Tso Valued Member United States 341 Posts	Posted 02/17/2009 12:49 pm I'm looking to buy a coin scale. Hopefully under $50.00. It's not for bulk weighing, just one coin at a time. Any suggestions? Also, what accuracy is needed? .1g or .01g? Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

I borrowed the official Pack 5.00oz weight to check scales and my little HF scale came in at 4.99oz. Interestingly enough the expensive offical scales at the weigh in were either 4.99999oz or 5.00000oz. I was surprised at how accurate it was. Report this Post to the Staff
