Question about digital weight scale?

Recommended Posts

Just bought one last sunday.

Most coins are in same weight as describe in ref. books.

Several question.

What is the thickness of halfcrown 1947 downwards and 2 shillings or florins 1947 downwards?

what is the oz weight of those florins?

weight some florins and the oz weight is .40 or .39 is this normal weight?

It is possible that a flan from half crown is use in florins?

Their is a mode first in grams or g. then in ounce or oz. then ozt dont not what it meant but I weight the coins in oz not in ozt.

If the coin is made of 2 or more metal using the second mode the oz, which will register the metal that is high in composition.

For example if the coin is made of .75 silver the oz will appear in the scale will be the ounce content of silver in the scale or I should measure it in ozt,I did weight peace dollar and irish 20 shillings the oz is correct as listed in ref. books.

Ozt will be ounces Troy, which is what is usually used for bullion and coins.
