Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 04/01/2018 2:07 pm Got a few of these in my change from the Home Depot yesterday. No joke! A buddy of mine at work showed me one last week that he got from Save-On-Foods. Report this Post to the Staff

Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 04/01/2018 3:43 pm Hi John1 - They are "multi-ply" plated steel. Basically, nickel on the outside and steel on the inside. Sorry for the warm light on my photo - I haven't had much experience yet taking pictures with my new phone. Report this Post to the Staff

Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 04/02/2018 5:41 pm For Canadian 25 cent coins, a steel planchet is plated with nickel, then copper, and then nickel again - for durability and to get a specified magnetic signature. http://www.coinscan.com/technical/m...tplating.pdf Report this Post to the Staff
