The edge of the coin is all silver, no copper color whatsoever. This coin is supposed to be copper nickel clad according to all the resources available to me. Take a look! Thanks!

Clad coins vary a great deal in appearance, you can't always see the copper layer. Furthermore, I'd like to see what reference you have that calls it "clad." U.S. quarters are layered in different metallic compositions, but when I look up this quarter I just see that it is a copper-nickel alloy. People may be confused over the difference between clad coins, which have layers of different alloy compositions, and those that are simply solid alloys of multiple metals but uniform throughout. I've handled many and don't recall it having an inner copper layer visible. So I'm sure you can safely spend it on your next trip to Bermuda!
