surfacewave Valued Member United States 169 Posts	Posted 08/03/2023 06:28 am Probably 100% nickel plated, which is magnetic, no U.S. coins are ferromagnetic except for the steel cent Report this Post to the Staff

Jax2Wynn New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 08/03/2023 11:11 am Thank you, I concur. Only the outer ring area is ferrous, the center is not. Neodymium magnets are the only ones strong enough to attach. My next step is to have the metals analyzed. I'll post the outcome, thank you for your time and knowledge. Report this Post to the Staff
