I think I saw a bronze/copper or two in that coinscan list of foreign coins stuck by RCM that might fit yours but don't have time to click through all those countries again. Would be a nice feature somewhere to make such a list searchable by size/weight/composition/year range...

I checked...I don't see anything. I think SPP's fits one of those.

Here is another 1977 struck on a foreign planchet that I can't figure out what planchet it's struck on. Weighs 1.9 grams. Non-magnetic and appears to be struck on bronze or copper planchet. Any ideas?

Any chance of that being a larger elliptical clip from a slightly larger planchet size?

It could be that but there are probably other foreign planchets out there that aren't in the reference material. I am thinking that there is a better chance for that scenario but your idea is interesting.

I gave Brad a case at my table... he is a good friend... We also went out for Brazilian dinner, and almost ate ourselves into a meat coma...

This coin is now in a PCGS holder, and properly attributed.

Struck on Costa Rica 5 Centimos planchet, off-centre, uniface strike.
