    Strictly on the edges, I've seen some clad coin edges show almost all copper...the entire thickness of the edge...almost all the way around or just in places, and then gradually reduce to something of about half or about a third of the edge thickness. Others have shown only a small width of copper almost all the way around, or vary from a thin to a thick(er) width on the same coin's edge. It's almost never a perfect or symmetrical "sandwich" of copper...at least it didn't used to be...but confess I don't focus on clad coinage or that aspect much at all anymore.

    hey @AirborneReams your coin has been in the ground for a certain amount of time and the results is what you see today. i agree with @Collecting Nut about a missing clad layer coin usually being on one side. there may be exceptions but this is not one. i wish i could tell you something better, good luck to ya

    Hey all was out on a vacation, thank you for all of your replies and after looking further into it does look like only coins with one side missing is how it usually works. The fire concept seems the most apparent to this situation to me as it has a very weird feeling to it. Well shoot, I guess I’ll keep checking my change LOL!
