Weight in Numista catalog:


Weight in World Coins 2015 catalog:


One of the weights is wrong. Any ideas which one?
Hi,

that's the exact weight (19.76 grs) given here:
https://colnect.com/en/coins/list/country/990-Biafra/year/1969/currency/263-%C2%A3_-_Biafran_pound
and here as well
http://www.gcoins.net/en/catalog/view/980#.WtCUAn--nIU

BUT here is the weight of another site, which is not a copy of another
http://onlinecoin.club/Coins/Country/Biafra/Pound_1969_silver/ (25.60 grs)

I wonder if Numista is not showing a counterfeit coin with images and measurements picked up from one of the first two sites:x

Maybe there are two types of this coin ? Both with different weight ?

https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/biafra-pound-km-6-1969-cuid-1046496-duid-1286652

We have 3 different sources saying that the correct weight is about 25.6g

I don't know who add photo of this coin but to make sure that the photo is correct I add a new one from trusted site.

Hi,

I'm nearly sure the coin shown in numista is a fake. The weight corresponds to the weight of nearly ALL of my fakes, see this thread: https://en.numista.com/forum/topic9693.html
