Hello VICkid , I too really like my clipped pennies, I have 15-20 that I have collected while CRH over the past few years. I don't have anywhere near the size collection you have . At this time I don't want to move any, but if things change in the future I know who to call.

West-canuk that is a nice toonie, did you find it or purchase it, must be pretty rare.

Hi denny, I think I found it in circulation a few years ago, don't think it's as tough to find as the clipped core variety.

Maybe so, Ive seen a picture of a clipped core, but your toonie had a mintage of 12m. So that is a nice find. I once saw a toonie blank at a LCS and they wanted 200$ for it.

VICkid I understand you are a teenager and that is great. I wish my daughter who is only a few years older than you had the same fever we have, maybe one day she will. I will dig out some more of my clips and post more pics soon.

Hey denny, sorry caught up in the moment, thanks for the reply and I understand, I have trouble parting with many of my coins too!

Love the double-clipped 1963 cent!! A straight clip and curved clip in a single coin!!

I do not believe the 1975 to be a clipped planchet, however the other ones are very nice indeed!

What do you think the 1975 is then, I have had a good look and the odv looks clipped. The reverse looks almost struck through. I didn't think it was PMD. I am not sure what it is. Anyone else have an opinion. |

the 75, it doe's look like an obverse dble clip, and the reverse being a struck through that stopped the rim's in both the clipped areas from showing sign's of a dble clip. The evidence of the obverse rim IMO cannot justify PMD here, as well as the reverse rim can't justify PMD. Two opposites, I like this one and hope it turns out to be unique! |

I was a little unsure when I found it and I'm more unsure what it is now. Maybe it belongs in a different area for some experts to consider. I'm so confused.  |
