Pope Paul IV silver coin

This has me puzzled. It's the size of a Guilio but only half the weight:

Found another specimen here with the same vital statistics as yours, so I suspect your source for the weight is wrong.

All I ever get from that site is a list of coins, can't open anything to see details. And my example is in hand.

Either trust me or try this:

- check if you have the latest version of the browser and related software, such as Java and Flash Player.
- delete your browser's cache file
- restart your browser, take this link first http://www.beastcoins.com, click on world, scroll down and click Vatican city
- delete your browser's preferences file (ouch)
- see if you can open the page in Firefox. If you are a Firefox user, try Safari or Chrome. Anything but Internet Exploder.

If all that doesn't do any good, at least your browser may be a tad faster.

Alternatively, there's nothing to open. Did you scroll all the way down?

Site works properly with me. Shows good picture and all details. You have to scroll down below the upper list.

[bagerap]

The simple solution always works. Scroll down dunderhead 
This coin was annoying me because I'd identified it before bidding, and then promptly forgot what it was. It's a product of Ancona, which makes the weight right but still leaves me a little perplexed. Does this indicate that there were two coins of the same value but differing weights in circulation at the same time?

This site:
http://www.rhinocoins.com/ITALY/SCHIESA/PAOLOIV.HTML

gives the weight of a Giulio as 5.2 gr, hence my confusion.

[Figleaf]

No, that weight of 5.2 grams is just plain wrong. See this page.

Although others have referenced it before, I never think to look in Wiki for coins. Thanks Peter.
