I have the same version with a date on it 2004 P 25 cents 1.62 gr. dark grey colour, also a 2004 5 cent version 1.25 grams had the coin xrf, results were iron. For those with computer skills look up a NGC # 2046580-007 it will bring up 2004P Canada 5 cents on foreign planchet 1.7 gr similar type of coin

Hey guys, Thanks for your quick replies. John, I also have a nickel that looks just like this quarter. It shows the date....2004. It weighs 1.29 grams. Do you have any idea on what country this planchet was meant for? DBM, Sorry. I actually dont know the date. I was thinking of the nickel. here are the pics of the nickel.   |

I was told by the seller that it was on an Israel planchet, but that does not match up. My graded and two loose coins are a dark grey blue colour looks like a slug from an electrical box, but I have seen another in a NGC slab. The xrf was mainly iron, might have to repeat it. All the coins are 2004P that I have seen, it would be cooler if struck on a slug, also sorry the NGC # has no picture.

I have seen the 2004P 25c, 10c and 5c on this planchet. It is almost pure iron on the XRF, and very prone to rusting. This planchet does not match any international coins that the RCM produced from 2001 to 2005. Back door job in my opinion - I am still looking for a 1-cent example and a loon example - apparently they exist. This is one coin that might be necessary to lacquer.

Here is one on the same planchet, struck by 10c dies, almost fully in collar. Looks quite cool, the mystery to me is all the 25c and 5c I have seen, are dated 2004. This one is dated 2007  http://www.pcgs.com/Cert/31397118.html"Discovery follows discovery, each both raising and answering questions, each ending a long search, and each providing the new instruments for a new search." -- J.
