<p>[QUOTE="Oldhoopster, post: 4137470, member: 84179"]If you think of a clad coin like a sandwich, and take out one slice of bread, it’s going to be thinner and both sides will be different color. Another thing to consider is that in many instances, a coin with a missing clad layer will be lighter than a normal coin. Comparing the weight and thickness to a standard coin is another easy way to check. Also, you still should be able to see the separate layers when looking at the edge of coin regardless if it’s the normal clad/copper/clad sandwich or the clad/copper partial sandwich. If the edge has the same color as the surfaces, you probably don’t have an error. And don’t think that it could be missing both clad layers. This would be exceedingly rare, and the coin would be so thin, you should be able to spot the difference immediately. Hope this helps[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
