Morning, I read about the 1972-D being struck on Phillipine 5c Sentavos but this 3.11g 1972-P appears to have the same die clash and wondering if it is possible? That is if it is a duel denomination. The example of the 1972-D pics(last 2) were the clearest I could find. the best I could find to compare. Thanks again
Cents previous to 1982 were made from copper alloy and should weigh 3.11 on the average plus or minus 0.13grams.
Yeah, it's why I had to ask if what happened to the 2.5g planchet struck with 1972-D Lincoln die could happen in reverse order to a 3.11g planchet. I couldn't find a better example of the 1972-D to compare my 1972-P to. Thanks
I see a normal cent with a little Machine doubling. There are so many rpm types, that a good microscope is often needed to see any variations. Jim
Thanks the last 2 pics of example were the best I could find to compare the duel denomination clash or in the 1972-D coin off metal as well. I compared the 1972 Phillipine 5c sentavos to my 1972 and matched up the clash but being weight is the regular 3.11g figured it was difficult if not impossible for a clash to happen but had to ask the experts.
