<p>[QUOTE=&quot;paddyman98, post: 2952871, member: 44615&quot;]Missing Clad Layer is an issue that only occurs on Clad coins such as Dimes, Quarters, Dollars such as SBA&#039;s and Kennedy Halves. It occurs before the Blank Planchet is struck when the Clad layer is Mechanically Bonded onto a Copper core. Sometimes they miss one side and all you have is the exposed copper. It&#039;s rare but it occurs.</p><p>Environmental Damage happens on Clad coins due to long exposure to soil, sand, dirt and the elements of the weather. I Metal Detect and have found hundreds of examples of Clad layers that have had the color altered.</p><p>These are mistaken for a Missing Clad layer error when they really aren&#039;t.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]721685[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]721686[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
