The inner planchet is steel, but then there is a thin layer of nickel, thicker layer of copper and finally a thicker layer of nickel.

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 02/19/2021 3:01 pm I should also mention, that the coin in question, is damaged, whereby the outer layer of nickel has been rubbed off on the high points.
