Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10038 Posts	Posted 07/12/2022 4:18 pm The term "clad" means to be "dressed in," or "sandwiched between" (in the case of coins). Copper cores are "clad" in nickel alloy layers to make dimes, quarters and halves. Nickels are just solid alloy. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
