New field to add fine weight manually

Right now the fine weight is calculated automatically by Numista with the total weight of an object and the given fineness.

But for segmented objects, what we call bi- or trimetallic, it is not possible to do so because we don't have the weights of the individual segments.

Can we have a field to enter the fine weight manually in such fringe cases?

 

As an example a 25 Euro niobium coin N#457938 

Right now we have a total weight of 16.50 g, but would need an additional 10 g outer segment + 6.5 g inner segment (in this specific case perhaps only the outer segment, since it is the only one with precious metal content) to reach the fine weight of 9.0 g silver.

Hello,
The idea is already tracked at https://en.numista.com/forum/topic145684.html

I'll copy your post there.
