Partial missing clad layer

I have a 1997-D penny that is missing part of the outer layer on both sides. I will post a picture tommorow. The lettering (one cent) shows on the zinc interior.

 

If your coin looks like this then it;s a missing clad layer coin.I;m talking about the 1980 p quarter the original poster

Cents are not clad. Therefore they cannot be missing a clad layer. Instead, cents have a thin layer of copper plating.

 

I just came across a quarter, Massachusetts 50 States Quarter, 2000 D, that is completely copper on the front, and 95% copper on the reverse side. There is only a tiny portion of silver on very top, barely even there. There is dirt on it but I don't want to clean it, afraid of damaging it. I compared it to a regular quarter and it is much narrower, so it's evident that the clad is missing. Any advice on it's worth? Or how to properly care for it, I don't want to damage it in the cleaning process.

 

This is a thread that is at least 8 years old @Copper Quarter you'd be better off posting a new thread with pictures.

 

Perfect, thank you. Just need to get off of my phone and to my computer to upload photos.

 

I have recently found a 1965 Washington quarter..it appears that the clad is missing on areas both obverse and reverse. As I further investigate I understand that this could be an altered coin...some small chance a minting error....does anyone want to have a look at it for me?
