How Much Does the Weight of Coins Vary When First Minted?

 

 

This video is in response to Packing and Stacking's question "what if a few coins where minted differently and weigh more or less?'. The variance in weight of the coins from the minting process is very minimal. A coin being worn down or having something like gum stuck to it would be a much more significant change to the weight. I'm still hopeful that my theory theory might help find rolls that have silver quarters or halves. I've already abandoned the idea for dimes where the weight difference isn't significant enough and in nickels where there is no difference in weight.
