Hello, everyone.
I have three 1 corona coins with these low weights.
Weights are 2% to 5,5% lower from original weight of 5 grams.
Are these consider normal weigts?
Does wear on the coins contribute to lower weights?

Many thanks.

Wear definitely contributes to lower weights.

That amount of weight loss is entirely consistent with that amount of wear.
