irek renrut Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 03/22/2024 1:44 pm I have read that the 1994 P nickel might have a clad planchet. Could this be one of them? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

irek renrut Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 03/22/2024 2:19 pm Well, I found my answer. This is not where I read it, but now I see that the coin should weigh around 2.14 gr and not a whopping 5.0! Thanks for asking about the post.

irek renrut Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 03/22/2024 3:56 pm Tacc, I did. It is normal, 5.0 gr. I should have looked up the weight of the clad planchet before posting. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95755 Posts	Posted 03/22/2024 10:12 pm not seeing a clad issue here (I have never heard of a clad nickel anyway.)

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 03/23/2024 4:49 pm It would seem that the error coin in the link on Heritage was struck on an underweight dime planchet. The TPG may not have wanted to call it a dime planchet because it was underweight, so they just say 'clad', ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
