ikandiggit Pillar of the Community Canada 1166 Posts	Posted 08/12/2012 09:18 am I found this in the till this morning. It appears to be a split planchet. Half of the reverse of the coin is smooth but the other half is rippled. It's also thin, about 1/2 the thickness of a regular cent. I'm guessing it's a split planchet. Any comments or observations would be helpful. Edited by ikandiggit 08/12/2012 09:25 am Report this Post to the Staff

But, when I get home, I'll try shooting it under different angles of light to see if there's any conclusive evidence one way or the other. Report this Post to the Staff
