Jackson Weight Plates

Gen 3 1A plates being offered on Vintage Weights & Physical Culture swap page 1/19/2026.  I reached out to the seller who let me know that 2.5s are usually $700-$750 and 5s are around $400-500.  He was looking to sell both for $900.

#1 1930s, the very best, machined the backs, production ended in 11959

#2 and #3, not lathed for calibration

#4 set 1.5" bore, among the rarest

#5 started production in 1959, plates had a bore of 1-21/64" to fit the 1-5/16" sleeve perfectly, highest production numbers.

#6 same as #5, but with shorter bar
