Montgomery Valued Member Canada 435 Posts	Posted 09/13/2026 11:40 am Ho, Got this one recently. Is it a kind of penny involve with a cap strike (don't remember exactly the name "last stage..."). The weight is 1,23 gr. The reverse as a kind off wavy face, not flat. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 27316 Posts	Posted 09/13/2026 1:19 pm Quote: The weight is 1,23 gr. Canada never minted cents that light - the lightest bronze one was 2.50 g. So either this is a split planchet or a damaged coin. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21868 Posts	Posted 09/13/2026 1:32 pm Think the terminology you looking for is "struck through a late stage die cap." If this was the case, there would be no loss of weight. I'm thinking PMD Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21868 Posts	Posted Yesterday 07:29 am With the sharper photos, I have to agree that it is a split planchet that split after it was struck. This would have been a copper planchet that would have originally weighed 3.24g. Edited by JimmyD Yesterday 08:34 am Report this Post to the Staff
