[QUOTE="gatzdon, post: 224674, member: 8247"]Well, along the previous lines of questioning, I've recently found a Kennedy Half Dollar that looks like it's made of copper, with an extremely small of nickel showing on one side. There are some small pits throughout the coin and a very large one where the date should be, but the date is still legible. My best theory to date is that someone used it to supply the nickel in a small nickel plating experiment. My question to those here, where can one find pictures of copper clad coins that have donated their nickel for electroplating (or other purposed) so that both I and the OP can compare our coins and assess the possibility that that is what may have happened.[/QUOTE]
