Smallcentguy Pillar of the Community Canada 1984 Posts	Posted 01/10/2018 4:56 pm I picked this one up recently. The seller described it as a cent on 25 poisha Bangladesh coin. He is a very sophisticated seller and should have known better....the error coin is mildly magnetic while the Bangladesh coin is not. All fun anyway......2.6g.....a mystery to me.

errorone2012 Valued Member Canada 334 Posts	Posted 01/10/2018 7:26 pm Quick note - if you see any cent on off metal errors - especially in the years 78-81 in any third party grading holder . test them with a magnet through the holder . There are many cent on dime planchet errors out there in holders that are not magnetic and hence not a dime planchet . I think the third parties just assume a dime planchet .

Fenian Valued Member Canada 79 Posts	Posted 01/29/2018 1:03 pm Nice coins! SPP Ottawa, I also have a 1979 cent struck on a NZ planchet, CCCS MS-64. Got it in an auction lot with a MS-63 1981 full brockage cent, 1981 1.3g MS-63 split planchet, 1978 3 clip cent, 30% off center cent, and 2 other errors for $300. Think I stole that lot...
