MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1303 Posts	Posted Today 6H 8M ago I bought a small part of an error collection at a flea market today, I'll post more later *Edited to remove assumption of improper alloy, as it likely isn't. You know what they say... Edited by MintedNotPrinted Today 1H 24M ago Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 26172 Posts	Posted Today 5H 31M ago Nice clip, MintedNotPrinted! But why do you think it's an "improper alloy" and not just stained? Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 100411 Posts	Posted Today 5H 5M ago very nice clipped planchet! that feature going across the obverse - can you get a better image of it? Could in be a very narrow lamination? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1303 Posts	Posted Today 4H 59M ago Thank you, everyone! Hondo, Dearborn, when I'm home later I'll get it under the scope - you may very well be correct, but it appeared to be an alloy streak to my eye. I won't be disappointed if it's only a clip Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6657 Posts	Posted Today 2H 59M ago The clip certainly looks legit. You can see where the letters near the clip are melty and incompletely formed. I think that streak will be revealed to be the same substance that's on the steps. I bet a clean water soak and a long acetone soak might lift a lot of that crud off the reverse.
