Nice straight clip (other than the old fingerprints that stained it)   |

Could someone explain how a large straight clip (like above) happens ?

That planchet was punched from the edge of the roll sheet of copper

Looks cool, need weight and if near a large gold or coin shop get them to XRF or xray it to find the composition.

I don't live remotely close to a gold or coin shop . The weight of the coin is 3 grams and that is the same as the copper one in the pic . The coin is not sliver as it is magnetic and don't have the ring of a sliver coin so I'm not sure what it's made of and have no way to figure it out

I don't think there are any foreign planchets struck at the mint that match. Looks like a legitimate wrong planchet strike rather than a plated planchet. Should go to have an XRF scan. I am sure SPP would be keen.
