Default Scale to weigh finds???

I didn't think I'd need a scale for my finds (clad and matchbox cars until today), but I got a .925 bracelet out of the dirt today! First silver!

Now that I have it (it's not in wearable shape), I guess I'll use it to start my scrap silver pile (or ziploc baggie for now). I'd like to weight it but don't have a scale.

So, what I'm asking is what kind low cost scale should I get? Anything specific to look for?

I'm a newbie (relatively) and appreciate the help I get from this forum!
