Scales like this are only really worth anything if they are calibrated with the certificates present.

Not really...… the majority of analytical scales lose their accuracy over time and no amount of tinkering will get them to calibrate.

It looks like a top pan balance, but the readability is high (or is it low, I can't recall) at tenths of a gram.

They normally operate with a large electromagnet inside, which probably accounts for the weight.
