50 micrograms is roughly equivalent to the weight of a fingerprint.

You don't suppose that's the answer right there, do you?

Did they let a Frenchman touch it? They can be very acidic.

I had a professor back in the 1970s that brought this up, and it was determined at the time that the loss was due to wear from handling.

When they stopped pulling it out all the time, or standardized handling procedure, I have no idea.

Yep.

All of the others are heavier by a fingerprint...

Hmmm.
