[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 460690, member: 1695"] Interesting sixpence Sandta, might be one of those Chinese repros, can't see it being a lamination error with that sort of oxidation going on under the surface. Most of the imported collection filler coins are copper cored coins with silver plate over the top. The only problem is that your sixpence looks to have been under the ground for a while going by its toning - might need a bit more research. Otherwise a great hunt, looks to have been from a similar era to the finds I am about to post up. :Y: Once thing I forgot is that it may have been caused by impurities in the metal, as in not a homogeneous mix of metals.
