<p>[QUOTE=&quot;huntsman53, post: 173503, member: 1242&quot;]pupa,</p><p><br /></p><p>The term is in reference to Clad Coinage (Business Strike Dimes and Quarters from 1965 to Present and for Half Dollars and Ike Dollars from 1971 to Present) which is missing part or all of the Cladding! U.S. clad coins have thin layers of Nickel and Copper (Clad layer) bonded to a Copper core. If part or all of the cladding is missing, then the Copper core is exposed. This type of error usually occurs before or during the Minting but can sometime occur post minting. There are some folks that will use methods such as a chemical (acid) bath to remove the cladding in hopes of selling the coin at a premium to an unsuspecting buyer.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
