I get that KM#s 186 and 187 are thick and thin planchet respectively, but nothing is said about KM#185 in the SCWC either. So how do I distinguish KM#185 from the other two?
Yes, KM#186 and 187 have different weights, because they are thick and thin planchet varieties.
The size of the Jhar symbol seems to be the key, but in what way (the obverses of all three coins pictured in the links look the same), and how does KM#185's weight/thickness compare?
It says KM#185 is 4.5 grams, but does this mean it is just a "medium planchet" version between the thick and thin planchet variants of 186 and 187? Or is there a more definite way to tell 185 apart from the other two?
