I caught that one (well I'll see when you give the answer, maybe I'm wrong). that's one of the more clad looking 40%ers I've seen. Sometimes the one half looks dead-on clad like this one, but usually I can pick up on the color difference in silver vs. nickel, even if not much is exposed. That one indeed has a strong copper tone.
I think I said the same thing like three times there, sorry

10th from the left if you don't count the furthest left coin as the #1, 11th if you do.

Some of you got it right. Keep your eyes pealed for that cherry silver.

This one is easy. There are tougher ones than this. Some coins were used in casino and those 40%ers just look like clad.

I have 10-15 40% that look like that. You have to focus on the tone of the silver part. Silver sticks out like a sore thumb compared to nickel. That said, im sure I have missed a few in my day.

I had 2 like that today, edge checked and saw nothing, slide them around to date check and heard the clink, looked again and there it was a 68. Makes me wonder how many I may have missed on ly edge checking. Maverick.

well i was half right.....usually they are the 1969's, i never do a straight slice edge check, i always push them out so i can "hear" and "See" half the surface.....been pretty fool proof for me.

This is why I check dates. Got someones dump one day, the old green marker down the side. and upon checking dates, lo and behold he missed a 1964.
