<p>[QUOTE="NorthKorea, post: 2789350, member: 29643"]You're right about the cladding. For some reason, I had a total brain fart about planchets and metal sheets. You're possibly also right about the wear, though, my reasoning is that the two sides have 80% silver exposed, while the edge is in the ratio of cladding. The obv/rev have the fields protected from wear, for the most part, as do the dips in the reeding.</p><p><br /></p><p>A bit off topic, but related... do nickels have a nickel plating layer over the cupronickel mixture? I'm mainly wondering because I have a copper colored nickel, and I'm wondering if that's possible due to wear. It's not copper plated, as it's lighter than a standard nickel.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
