Dcnw1983 Valued Member United States 264 Posts	Posted 10/15/2015 5:20 pm This blank planchet is rimmed, brass-toned, 5.10 grams, and just under 1 inch in diameter (did not have a mm ruler). What type of coin is it intended for? Report this Post to the Staff

Dcnw1983 Valued Member United States 264 Posts	Posted 10/16/2015 2:28 pm I don't think it is a nickel. Just slightly larger as you can see in this photo. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 10/16/2015 2:46 pm Planchets are slightly smaller than the resultant coin so if it is larger, then it is impossible for it to be a nickel planchet. Report this Post to the Staff
