Error Other | 1962 D cent that weighs between 2.93 grams and 2.94 grams

[Sheila ruley]

I am going to go with just barely within the weight tolerance for copper cents. But I figured that I would just ask anyway. I am not good at math. I am going to be straight with you guys on that. The here are the pictures. The obverse and reverse. The width is not much different. Really not much circulation wear. Information please? 198DCDCF-0670-4457-BAA5-4FD145B3D22B.jpg To show good calibration.

Possibly a rolled thin planceht since all the details appear normal.
(LOL. Thought you were pulling our legs with the first image of the $20.)

[Sheila ruley]

How much is a circulated $20 bill supposed to weigh?
I couldn't find any official info!

After any modern paper bill has been hung out to dry or finished going through the spin cycle, it should weigh about 1 gram.
So the scale showing 1.0 gram for the weight of the one dollar bill, looks correct.

Yes. I am still trying to find out if the Coin is out of tolerance.

FYI- The first two display as "invalid attachment" error.

[Sheila ruley]

Hmmm.... I wonder what is going on. Should I try
reposting them?

[Petespockets55]

Sure.
Something looks different about the lettering on the attachments.

Something that I noticed is if it's a jpg it will open right away. But, if it's a jpeg it has to download onto my computer first, then it will open. Any idea why sometimes your phone does jpeg photos? The jpg's are much easier to view.

Found this info on another thread where Jim answers this question:

The weight of the solid Cent is 3.11 grams https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/31/5112 +/- 0.13 grams https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/31/5113 or 2.98 to 3.24 grams will be with in tolerances... Your coin is slightly under weight by 0.22 grams... It most likely is due to the corrosion that is evident on both sides... It may have also been at or just below the minimum allowable weight of 2.98 grams... Hope that helps a little!!!

Ok, the Bottom calling, is the 1962D and the top coin is the 1982. Both copper. The first picture is the thinnest part on each coin next to each other. The second picture is the thinnest part of each coin next to each other. 8344A771-6B01-4780-8338-ACA0E08E7938.jpeg 2F05BC37-46D6-48B8-9C73-D0B19B205EE2.jpeg

I have no idea. I never change the settings.

jpg and jpeg are the same format... At least they use to be
