Missing clad layer

[Mercergrl2]

I’m curious because on this 2015 Bombay Hook Quarter it looks like the reverse clad layer is missing but its weight is 5.7g. Thanks for looking.

I honestly don't know what to think of this one, since it has two different types of look.
I feel suspicious about this since one is pure copper and dark brown and the other is totally different.
On the dark brown side, I don't see any actual "dings". Maybe the clad layer was removed chemical wise and light splashed over to the other side?
BUT, I don't have the coin in had and cannot put it under a 'scope.

You can wait for other responses as well.
You can also ask the CONECA staff to look at this.


I suggest you visit this main forum page.
Look for CONECA SERVICES
Go under EXAMINATIONS
Add a post under examinations. A CONECA staff member should look at the coin.

ADD as much information as you can about the coin, in text and photos. By doing so, you may get your answer a lot sooner than having to wait for several replies. Add the weight, maybe a photo of some of the reeding (thinnest area/side of the coin) as well.
