<p>[QUOTE="Oldhoopster, post: 3204402, member: 84179"]I think it depends on where in the process the clad layer splits. The metal sheet is rolled to the specified thickness. If a layer falls off <u>after</u> the sheet is rolled to the final thickness (whether as part of the sheet of after it’s blanked), the weight of the error coin would probably be reasonably consistent. However, if the clad was missing at some point before or during the rolling process, the 2 layers could be close to or equal to the thickness of a normal coin. That could explain why it weighs more[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
