moose59 Pillar of the Community United States 732 Posts	Posted 08/30/2018 2:58 pm I think it is a Washington quarter Blank. It Weighs 5.71gms Diameter 23.7mm Has a copper core! What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 08/30/2018 3:04 pm Yes, it is a clad Planchet with copper core, it has been through the Upset Mill to put the psuedo-rim on but didn't make it through the rest of the process. BTW, a planchet IS different than a blank. The Blanking process is where the "blanks" are punched out of a sheet of cladded stock plate...the edges wouldn't show the upset rim and evened out appearance.
