mike9999999 Valued Member Canada 224 Posts	Posted 01/09/2017 7:09 pm I remember being a little tod' somewhere between '06 and '08 and finding a modern Canadian quarter with a very large "cookie bite". Now I know it was actually a clipped quarter. I don't remember what happened to it, unfortunately. -I know it was a modern quarter because I remember it had the orange-steel inside of it, dating it somewhere between 2000-2008. -The clip was about 40%-50% from my memory What would that have sold for these days?

For a Canadian coin - If you saw the raw interior, the plating was cut through after being minted. Therefore: PMD. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21630 Posts	Posted 01/10/2017 7:42 pm The steel blanks are punched out before they are nickel plated. If it was a real clipped quarter, you would have plating covering the clip and would not be able to see the steel and copper. Report this Post to the Staff
Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2519 Posts	Posted 01/10/2017 8:06 pm If the sheet of metal was plated before it was punched out to make planchets, there will be no plating on the edges. If it was this way then the steel core would be exposed and the coin would just rust away. So blanking first, then the steel is plated. Report this Post to the Staff
