aneta Valued Member United States 75 Posts	Posted 12/10/2015 2:34 pm I am a cashier at a thrift store. I found this penny. Was wondering if it's a clipped planchet? Report this Post to the Staff

robmck1967 Pillar of the Community Canada 870 Posts	Posted 12/10/2015 5:06 pm I find that my photos must be under 180 kb to load even though the site says the max is 200 kb. Try reducing the quality number down a bit. I think the default number is 80 so try 78 or lower until your picture size is below 180kb. Good luck :) Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 12/10/2015 8:04 pm Check the sheered edge. Devices do not flow into the clipped area. Also read copper plated cents are plated after blanks are punched. If affected area is not copper plated then most likely damaged or cut post mint. Thanks, Doug.

at4user New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 12/11/2015 04:50 am The devices at the edge are so clean that I would say it's not a clipped planchet. If it were, you would see the devices smeared and fade away near the edge of the clip. I could be wrong of course, but I did have a similar question about one of my coins and that's how I was explained it. Luckily mine was clipped :D Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/11/2015 12:59 pm Damaged coin. Looks like it was clipped off the coin. It if it were an incomplete planchet, then the clipped edge would be plated. PSD (Post Strike Damage) Spendable. Edited by coop 12/11/2015 12:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff
