Home Depot Plywood
howard gorman
Went to buy birch veneer plywood and found them totally cleared out of any of the better veneered plywood. What I ended up getting was what they call "sanded" plywood. I asked what species the face veneer is and no one could tell me. Any of you out there might know what the face veneer is? Thanks

We (Home Hardware, Canada ) sell radiata pine, a nice product in between furniture grade plywood and construction plywood. Possibly that is what you got.
Key to sanded plywood specifications

Try to find a trademark on one of the sheets. If you can, here is s key to the different specifications:

Note that there is a wide range of wood species in whichever group you have—typically both needle woods and hardwoods.

We need a picture. It can vary by geography.

The short answer is that it could be anything. Home Depot buys at least some of the plywood from a company in NC. This plywood is easy to spot because it has a core of poplar. The face will be maple, hard or soft.
If the plywood is Chinese the wood could be anything.
