    If I understand correctly; it should weigh 5 grams with a tolerance of 1% over or under.  Is this a common occurence for this to weigh 4.7grams. Mint error? Any knowledgeable and helpful info on this is greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    I just found a 1942 no mint mark nickel that weighs 4.70 and I was wondering the same thing I did find one video on couch collectibles on YouTube that said they found one silver nickel in that year that weighed 4.7 .. but everybody is always money to tolerance and I don't think tolerance goes that low for a nickel that's not that wore out
