<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 3224960, member: 66&quot;]Happens after the blank is punched.&nbsp; An area of one of the clad layers isn&#039;t properly bonded to the copper core and after the blank is punched the &quot;loose&quot; clad layer falls away, sometimes before and sometimes after the coin is struck.&nbsp; If the clad layer was missing before the blanking the two layer strip would have still been rolled to the proper thickness and a missing clad layer coin would not be underweight.&nbsp; Also a coil of strip with a clad layer missing would surely be noticed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course what you meant might have been that the CAUSE of a missing clad layer happens before the blank is punched, which IS true.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
