If it's 5.67 grams, it isn't missing any of the clad. Also, most coins with missing clad show as normal on the opposite side. Only a handful of coins with the clad missing on both sides have been certified. (Less than 20 or so.) When a coin is struck on a planchet with missing clad, it tends to be a weak strike due to the missing layer. This coin looks like a normal strike. The dies are set for a planchet of a certain thickness and when a planchet with missing clad is struck it's just not enough material in the striking chamber to get a fully detailed strike.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/03/2022 7:05 pm The color of the coin speak. It is an intentionally damaged coin to say it is missing clad. Report this Post to the Staff
