    Error Planchet | 1955-D Rolled thick 3.7g

    Not quite as heavy as a heafty 4G 1941 or 1944, but definitely the heaviest planchet I've come across. This is actually the first one that has weighed more that 3.2 for me. Thin planchets seem to be more common, or at least easier to catch. I caught this one by hearing the clasic high pitch ring that I associate with a thin. In my head, I thought the pitch would be lower than a normal!

      I agree thin planchets are way more common. That's a very cool find.
