coin rejector Pillar of the Community United States 2834 Posts	Posted 03/21/2026 3:28 pm Nice lamination & 35% silver. Did you check the mint mark for RPM's? Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 03/21/2026 3:34 pm Yep, agreed. Lamination. That 35% silver alloy mixed poorly for the mint, but it leads to some visually interesting problems in the planchets. Nice find. =) Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95018 Posts	Posted 03/21/2026 5:17 pm Nice lamination on a war time silver nickel - too bad it looks like it was slightly sanded flat on the high points.
