Vance Valued Member Canada 50 Posts	Posted 06/13/2013 6:07 pm Mike, I recently acquired this gem at a local coin shop. It has been sitting in a collection for about 30 yrs. In researching this coin I came across an article you wrote on "extrusion strikes" and thought this may qualify? It weighs 1.37 gm ! Report this Post to the Staff

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2739 Posts	Posted 06/13/2013 9:11 pm Vance, your Canadian cent was struck on a split planchet that received a 50% indent from a planchet of presumably normal thickness. It would seem that, in most areas, planchet thickness was less than minimum die clearance, which is why a die-struck design formed mainly in the area opposite the indent.
