looking to buy a gram scale, mostly to weight silver eagles and rounds, any recommendations for a small portable one, seen a few on Amazon for $10 to $20, worth it?

0.001 grams is better than 0.01.

I bought my Taylor food scale years ago at target for around $15/$20. It weighs 0.00 grams/0.000 ounces & have found it to be accurate.

Interesting keith, thats the scale I posted before I have also

I chose that one mainly because it came with the calibration weight as that seems to be the most important (recalibration) but many models should work equally for most typical uses here.

I really don't see the need to weigh to the nearest milligram, but that's a good deal for only $5 more.
