<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2040538, member: 66&quot;]The clad coins were also a step taken to prevent counterfeiting.&nbsp; Making the clad strip was no easy procedure.&nbsp; Back in the 60&#039;s the only way to produce it was through explosive bonding.&nbsp; Literally packing explosives around the coppernickel and copper ingots using the force of the explosion to bond the ingots together.&nbsp; Then the ingots would be rolled out into strip.&nbsp; The sandwich appearance of the edge was yet another anti counterfeiting feature.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
