1988 25-cent struck on a 2.7 gms bronze planchet. The CCCS certificate identifies it as being struck on a New Zealand 1c planchet (normally 2.1 gms), but the Royal Canadian Mint did not strike 1c coins for New Zealand in 1988 (the New Zealand 1c was last struck in 1987 before being phased out). More likely this coin is struck on a Barbados bronze 1c planchet. An interesting error type for collectors who want something different, CCCS MS-63 R.
