Do you mean flat caps or the caps that came with the most recent run of Markmont. Classic Magnum Opuses? They’re very similar, but a bit different (pictured in the album are grey flat caps, silver MCMO side effects); flat caps are a bit rounder and weigh slightly more:

So, not as drastic as I thought, it’s only 0.7g heavier:

Silver MCMO - 64.1g

Nickel MCMO - 64.8g

All I’ve found is it weighs _a few grams more_. Hopefully, someone will weigh it and post the details.
