    I have this blank planchet that I don't know where the heck I got it from.
    Anyways, what is the value and can or is it possible to grade? Thanks @paddyman98 ! :rolleyes::smuggrin:
    Sorry for the poor-quality Pics.

    I agree it looks like a copper-coated Zinc Type 2 planchet.

    I think you can pick them up, in general, for $2 max
    at a shop or show that does have a few in stock.

    Zinc I'd say 2-3, Copper probably 5+, I can't give a grade on it because of the quality, but it looks alright other than a few minor scratches on the reverse.. or presumably the reverse? 2nd photo.

    It's not worth sending it in. You need to pay a fee for both grading and attribution. Just stick it in a 2x2 and put it away.

    I blame my meds, you blame forest fires. Okay, I'll buy that.

    I known the med feeling from my knee surgery. I’m still taking it easy but I know I’ve made mistakes. Other members correct me and I’m glad they do. Please don’t let the meds get to you.
