I'm looking for a cheap scale that will help me determine the difference in my 1982 Lincolns, among other things. For $9 shipped, how does this look: http://cgi.ebay.com/500g-x-0-1-Digi...wt_W0QQitemZ230345001791QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item35a1a1cb3f&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65:1%7C66:2%7C39:1%7C240:1307%7C301:1%7C293:1%7C294:50 Thoughts? |

Out of the two you listed, I would go with the second.

I went with the 2nd one. I figured for $10 I'd give it a shot.
Thanks for the input.

If for just the 82 Lincolns, you would be better off with the popsicle method. You just take a pencil, balance a popsicle stick across it, spot of glue to hold it in place. Place a post 82 at the far end of the stick. Any 82 placed on the other end will either make the stick balance or fall. If it falls, it is the Copper one. If it balances, it is the Clad one. And you save on a scale you may never use for anything else. AND you get to eat either a popsicle or ice creame bar. |
