Conder101 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 A 1964 at over 13 grams would be out of tolerance. Spec was 12.5 grams +/- .259 grams so the maximum legal weight would be 12.759 grams. The 40% silver halves (1965 - 79) were 11.5 +/- .4 grams so yours are within tolerance. The copper nickel clad are 11.34 grams +/- .454 grams so legal tolerance range would be 10.89 grams to 11.79 grams. Your Bicentennials are within tolerance.

Awesome thanks man I’m a true collector not out for the money. But sometimes to figure things out you gotta do it the crappy way if you know what I mean. I hate spending money getting things Unnecessarily graded when I can ask someone on here and knows what they’re doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If no one has told you yet DON'T clean your coins.) Unfortunately the images are not good enough for grading purposes, and I've reached the point where I don't bother grading coins anymore. I answered the question about the half on another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
