I found a "sticky" with mainspring ID and a chart, didn't see anything in the FAQs, if you could provide a link would be grateful.

Trying to ID the number of coils I have. seems like 20 but gets a bit dicey on the last turns... is it another 1/2, two halves make a whole? So 21?

RickW on another post mentioned he swapped all his mainsprings for #38 from Wolff.

Would like to ID my spring, (if able) and see what poundage it has. According to the chart on the sticky the lbs were much greater than 38 in older/original springs.
