Hello,everyone.

I have a canadian commemorative proof silver 1 dollar from 1985 National Parks.
The weight needs to be 23,33 grams.
The one I have is slighty heavier at 23,42 grams.
The diameter and thickness is normal.
Does this heavier weight is still consider OK?

Many thanks.

That's less than 1%
Well within tolerance.
That one is quite scuffed, worth melt value only.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Agree, within tolerance, looks fine.

Still within tolerances. For future references, you shouldn't hold a coin with your bare fingers. Only hold by the edge only or wear gloves. You don't want to leave fingerprints behind on coins that could be valuable.

nice looking coin - but too bad about all the scratches on it. Considered a cull coin now most likely.
