Trademark/Pharaohs weigh-in, interesting results

At work I have access to all manner of laboratory equipment, including some Mettler Toledo scales, so I decided to see what my recently delivered sample set of Trademarks weighed in at compared to my JB2005s. I zeroed the scale between each measurement and compared color to color. See the table below, there were some VERY interesting results. Some TM chips were 1/2 gram heavier or more than their JB2005 counterpart! The entire 7 chip stack was 2.5 grams heavier than the JBs. One even came in at over 10 grams.

Color JB TM

Blue 9.3898g 9.8830g (big differential)
Red 9.6464g 9.8862g
Green 9.8583g 10.1368g (wow)
Black 9.2923g 9.9619g (another huge difference)
Purple 9.4972g 9.8200g
Orange 8.7319g 9.0188g

White* 9.5180g 9.8532g

*=this chip has gotta be lighter than a typical JB as I used it to experiment with removing one of the labels. Probably 50% or so of the label is gone on one side.

JB stack weighed 65.9334 total, TM stack weighed 68.5602 (about 2.5g difference).

I'm searching around the building for a micrometer so I can check the thicknesses, but haven't found one yet, if I do, I'll post results.
