Edward VII - Coronation Medal specs

Dieses Thema wurde im Forum Englisch veröffentlicht

I just bought one of these: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces43598.html and according to the Numista entry, it should weigh 15g. Its actual weight is 12.8g.

I've found others on sale, some quoting a weight of 15g, some 12.8g, some unspecified. There doesn't seem to be any other spec info online besides the Numista page.

I also recently got this 30 drachma coin: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces7222.html, which is almost the same size, and mine weighs in at 12g as stated on the Numista page.

At first, I thought I'd gotten a silver plated bronze version (it was struck in gold, silver and bronze, and in two sizes). But given there are other examples on sale that quote a weight of 12.8g, and the similarity to the 12g Greek coin, I think the weight quoted on Numista may be wrong.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!
You are correct, the weight shown from multiple websites I have just researched all say 12.8 grams for this particular Edward VII medal.
