The reverse side was so minor, but my eye caught it after I has spotted it on the obverse.

This one is tough for me. The shape of the clip just looks so wrong to me that I am certain that I would have dismissed it as damaged.

ErrorCoins222: Genuine curved clip - the die flow along the clip being the best evidence. The shape of the clip is strange, however the shape can be distorted under heavy pressure between two dies.

I believe that is why the shape is distorted. During the strike the planchet altered it shape because of the area clipped out was large.

This is a tough one! I would think with such a large clip, the die flow would be more evident

I have some wider large clips and yes, the clip is distorted (not perfectly curved) but I have never seen one so angular. I too would have dismissed this one.

Are you talking about an edge clip?

That was what I thought you were thinking of. Over the edge on two corners. The that would be missing two sides forming a corner, not an corner inside towards the center.

I can't think of an way there could be an inside corner on the blank. Outside corner, but not an inside corner. The punching is round. Falling over to edge would create the example I created above. But inside corner that is at a right angle, I can't see happening.
