I collect ancient coins and have come across my share of medieval ones. They made them wafer thin, you feel like they should roll up under a little bit of stress but they hold up. I was not familiar with the bishop types, pretty interesting.

Wafer thin or not, how can 20,000 coins be only 13 pounds?
That's over 1,500 coins per pound, or nearly 100 per ounce or 3.39 per gram if you want to go metric! A gram weighs about as much as a standard paper clip. 3 coins weighs LESS than a paper clip? The math seems funny.
