Congrats. I've only found a few in all of my searches.

 

Nice find!

 

Congrats! I've never found a blank planchet in any denomination coin that I've searched!

 

Yup, it is a Type 2, with a rim upset

 

+1, congrats!

 

It looks like a zinc planchet in the photo.

And, although I learned to call them Blank Planchets
back in the early '60's too, they're either one or the other.

If there is no upset rim, it's a Type 1 Blank

If there is an upset rim, it's a Type 2 Planchet.

....just for clarification, and to prevent confusion.

 

Ill weigh it when i get home just to confirm if it is zinc. Thanks for the info.

 

That's an awesome circulation find.

 

I still get excited when I find these! Thanks for sharing!
