A Canadian blank planchet, specifically a Type II upset planchet for a 1-cent denomination. This copper alloy disk has passed through an upsetting mill to create a raised, rounded rim but remains unstruck with no obverse or reverse designs. The metal displays a dark brown patina across both surfaces. The item is housed in a vintage cardboard 2x2 holder with handwritten ink inscriptions reading 2ND STAGE - CANADIAN BLANK and PETER DE GRAAF $15.00. The planchet exhibits a natural dark brown patina with visible surface scuffs, minor oxidation marks, and light scratches. The cardboard holder is yellowed with age and features rusted staples.
