Jody Winn New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 08/27/2024 2:47 pm Hello!! Has anyone ever heard of a State Quarter missing a clad on both sides? Does anyone know WHY this coin has a copper appearance on both sides? It weighs 6 grams. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19138 Posts	Posted 08/27/2024 2:50 pm Plated, perhaps? Six grams is a tad overweight. If the cladding was missing, the coin should weigh less. Report this Post to the Staff

Jody Winn New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 08/27/2024 4:14 pm If cladding were missing, it would be considerably underweight. Correct? Why is it that I only find the science experiments and the environmentally damaged. Story of my life. LOL Report this Post to the Staff

Just some environmental discoloration........ (From a random internet article): "Nickel/Copper ~~aloy~~ alloy can tarnish over time, especially when exposed to moisture, oxidation, air, sweat, or chemicals like hand sanitizers and cleaners. Tarnishing occurs when elements within the metal oxidize, forming a thin layer of corrosion on the surface." EDIT: Spelling Edited by Marv65 08/27/2024 10:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
