Thank you the information. Is there any value for this? I might add that the coin is medal struck. At least I think that is the term. I'm still learning!

It's not struck in medal orientation, it is coin strike.

Ok bear with me, I just leaning. My understanding is that a coin stamp is like flipping a calendar and a medal stamp is like turning the pages in a book. Do I have that backwards?

Your description of medal vs coin alignment is correct AnnF.

Thanks for the help ya'll. I'm just now learning. My dad has an ammo box full of old coins so I'm sure I'll be back with more questions!

to the forum!

It is a clip, you can see the "Blakesly Effect" on the opposite rim.


Quote:
Blakesly Effect - When examining clipped planchets, the side of the coin opposite of the clip will exhibit what is know in the coin industry as the "Blakesly Effect". During the upsetting process or rimming of planchets, if a section of the planchet is missing, there will be an absence of pressure in that area causing the opposite side of the coin to be flat and not as formed.

A nice one too!

Since thats a fairly decent sized clipped planchet I would say it would likely bring somewhere between $5 - $10. Since its circulated, it would probably be on the lower end of that scale.

Do all clipped planchets exhibit the Blakesly Effect? I have a few that seem legitimately clipped but I don't see any abnormalities opposite the clip. Does the severity of the clip affect the severity of the Effect?
That sounds like a riddle...

No, it does show frequently but not always. Oddly I have often found it is missing more often on large clips than on small ones.

And sometimes will only be seen on one side. It might have been because of the clipped area, it raised slightly and made that effect on just one side. (just my own explanation)
