mozeppa

part of a copper draw bar for clad coinage?

i give up

cosmos66

I guess one ounce of pure silver.

Tonelover

Half eaten candy bar?

Draco

looks like a copper alloy crane shoe to me

Placid

Broken door latch?

RYK

Two red "X"'s?

DMWJR

I guess Mozeppa got it right off the bat!

It is a vintage circa 1967 clad sandwich strip for dimes or quarters. This is the strip that will be rolled into a sheet for planchets.

Wonder if I can get it slabbed? Will it grade MS67? SMS67?

LAWMAN

copper clad Heath bar.

ms70

Where in the world did you get that?

Pretty neat.

Shamika

DMWJR,

That's a cool piece of numismatics.

fountainheadgold

I get red x's also

Bulldog

Odd, but a good find

kranky

That's a pretty cool item, DMWJR. Don't know if I've ever seen a photo of one of those before.

razorface1027

A slab of HASHISH?...

Bochiman

I concur...that is cool.
It is like my wafer of AMD K5 cpus (~12" round and full of cpus something cool to those in the hobby/industry, but probably not to others...heh).

I have no idea what it is worth, but it is very cool. I hope you tell us (if you can) how you got it. I take it they are not easy to come by?

Hey, thanks for the replies. I thought it was a really neat piece as well. A good friend of mine gave it to me. He's had it forever, and still has another one as well.

We have a "don't ask, don't tell" agreement about it.

I'm glad you enjoyed the pics.
