Default Distributor weight questions

Looking for a little distributor education today.

I've got a couple used distributors in a box and was going through them. I also removed the distributor out of my car to add a limiting bushing to shorten the timing curve. I noticed the weights on my operational distributor are different than my parts distributors. What effect of timing does this have if any? The weights out of my parts dizzy have a number 37 stamped into them whereas the operational weights have no number.

The cleaner looking weight is out of my operational distributor vs the brown one from my parts distributor.
