A toonie weighs 7.2grams. . . so just over a quarter . . cause I'm guessing this information was requested for illicit reasons

I can send you a picture of a toonie but I would get banned because it's on something.

That is 100% true. I am surprised how accurate it is.

I'm not, really.

I think it was done purposely so that banks, if need be, could weigh mass quantities of money. Rather than throw everything through a counting machine.

does it hold for both canadian and USD ?

because they have different shapes but possibly the same area ...

 

[The Tesseract]

No it doesn't.

American bills are not made of the same material. Canadian bills are a fiber/fabric composite, whereas US bills are just paper (so i've been told)
