About the plating, I don't think it would split any more than a normal Zincoln.

Since the proofs are struck twice you would expect them to have more of a problem with split plating that the business strikes. For that reason the proof planchets are double thickness plated.

I didn't really think about the double strike.

Actually I just found out they were having the split plating issues with the early zincolns proofs. That's why they went with the doubled copper.
