Sovereign 1832 Weight

[Hastur]

Was about to buy it but weighted 7.83 and that year has many fakes.

Would that weight eliminate it? Looked good some wear in obverse but not as much as to loose that much not sure.

Seen many sivs arround lately. Do good fakea weight 7.98 or allways have some small difference?

Seems too light, even for a worn piece. A 1% weight loss would still be over 7.9g and would be quite obviously worn. 0.16g down is a lot of gold to lose. If in doubt, ignore. You can always buy one that isn't suspect elsewhere. Given the grade as described, it isn't rare enough to be a must have piece at any price.

Thanks. I am not into buying any coin that just can not pass a simple weight and dimensions tests.
