Dearborn Moderator United States 77073 Posts	Posted 10/02/2025 8:48 pm I found a pretty nice quarter struck on a dime stock. (not a planchet, but rather the thinner stock) It weighs 4.22g my quarter is sandwiched between a normal quarter and a dime. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 6341 Posts	Posted 10/02/2025 10:11 pm Marve...check it out...Mint worker pulled a sheet of copper nickel clad already rolled down to the thickness required for producing dime blanks but used that sheet instead to punch out blanks for quarter production. Nice find Dearborn...welcome to the club Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 77073 Posts	Posted 10/02/2025 10:38 pm Thanks everyone! This is a cool find for me. Almost tossed it into my quarter pile for rolling... @ Marve yes dimes weigh 2.27g and clad quarters are at 5.67g, but a planchet the size of a quarter but punched from clad dime material will fall in between. (it is larger than a dime but thinner than a quarter) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
