  2. It would be a minor loss plus the crud on a fine piece.14 g plus or minus 5% should be the weight.

  3. Very acceptable loss! Years ago I used to have that information, but have since misplaced it. I used to buy the silver off eBay, calculating how much the coins would weigh, based on the wear, and then bid accordingly! Not an overly successful silver buying project, but I did develop a good feel for acceptable weight loss at the time! As was mentioned above, it's a valuable exercise to weigh a few and build a small database!
