I was faced with a similar problem when I found out that my digital scales
were not weighing accurately - it proved to be an uneven surface on part of
the counter top.
Sets of weights were expensive so I googled the Canadian Mint and found that
the Canadian dollar coin (the Looney) weighs 7 grams. Therefore, I
periodically check mine with pocket change.
