biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 03/31/2017 12:17 pm Yes, it is a Type II planchet with the milled protorim. A Type I planchet is typically just referred to as a blank, punched from the stock metal sheet with no other processing. Report this Post to the Staff
SelectCoinCanada Valued Member Canada 414 Posts	Posted 03/31/2017 12:19 pm Correct, type II planchets have upset rims. I recently acquired a full roll from a dealer here in Ontario, he had an original mint bag dated from 1997. I should have got a picture of the label from the bag but I wasn't thinking. I asked how much since he had a couple dozen rolls and he said $40, without question I forked over the $40(CDN). I've dealt with this guy in the past and he gave me a funny look and said "you really think they're worth that much"? So I don't think he expected me to agree to his first number but I figured they're worth $4-5 each so I was happy, and they're all brilliant red. In fact, I sent my CCF secret Santa recipient 8 of them this past christmas, some to keep, and some to trade. Report this Post to the Staff

Potbellypub Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 03/31/2017 12:25 pm Very cool selectcoincanada the guy I got this one off of acted like it was just scrap but I had never found one so I was excited to get it for 50 cents. He also had a large Canadian coin collection I may go back and buy from him. He had a lot of older coins from Canada most looked lightly circulated . Report this Post to the Staff

Very nice, if you're not sure what's there ask to take some pictures and throw them up in the Canadian forum for some opinions. Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 03/31/2017 4:55 pm Didn't know they were referred to as type 1 or 2 - just always used the terms "blanks" which were just flat "slugs" punched from flat stock then "planchets" which had a semi rim formed on the blanks and to form them to be ready for striking by the dies.
