<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1067610, member: 66&quot;]The magic quarters&nbsp; are why i asked it it was strongly magnetic all over or just in one area.&nbsp; One way they used to make them was to drill into the edge and then insert the magnet or a steel cylinder in at the edge.&nbsp; The coin could be easily picked up by a magnet but the attraction would be most at one edge or point on the coin.&nbsp; A weak attraction all over can be obtained by a heavy nickel plating but it would most likely cover the copper edge.</p><p><br /></p><p>After taking another look at the pictures it loots like there is a seam all the way around on the reverse just inside the rim.&nbsp; It looks like they used the same technique they use to make two headed coins.&nbsp; Hholling out one side to form a &quot;cup&quot; and then cutting down a second coin to fit into the cup.&nbsp; in this case you shave it down a little thinned an include a layer of steel or a magnet as a center layer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
