    Description

    3.73 grams versus normal 3.1 grams.
    All coin planchets are punched out of metal sheets that were "rolled" into a particular thickness. There is no way to know whether this coin was deliberately or accidentally made thicker/heavier than normal (pattern versus error). Either way, this is the only thick planchet 1936 cent that we could trace.
