Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5393 Posts	Posted 04/06/2017 10:36 am Found in a city sewer system most likely. The City of Victoria used to bring dregs like this into my shop when they cleaned out and repaired parts of the system. Report this Post to the Staff

fudd New Member Canada 17 Posts	Posted 04/06/2017 4:32 pm I once played around with nickel electroplating and used a nickel as a sacrificial piece. It came out looking similar so I would say it defiantly looks like a chemical reaction of some kind. Too bad could have been a nice key date. Report this Post to the Staff

Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 01/28/2018 5:22 pm If you look at the rim (3 and 9 o'clock) where it looks spongy, that would be an indication of a bad nickel casting. However, the "craters" in the middle of the coin do not look like casting porosity. This is most likely some type of corrosion and definitely not a casting.
