[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2041708, member: 15929"]I believe that your explanation is exactly opposite of what occurs cladking. The CnClad layer is relatively thin but pliable enough to stretch before breaking as the blank is force through a receiving hole. That stretched cladding stretches up to cover half if not more of the edge of the coin covering the copper core. This is one reason why the copper and cladding are exactly opposite on a genuine CnClad clip. Think of the blanking press as similar to a paper hole punch. A steel rod is force down onto the clad strip with enough force to push it through a hole. The bottom of the blank gets cladding stretched up onto the blank while the strip gets cladding stretched down into the hole created by the press. This was explained more effectively in a CONECA Errorscope Article a few years back.[/QUOTE]
