Thanks all , my lighting is poor but aside from the streaks on the reverse, this coin is quite stunning in hand.

Kinda funny I just pulled this out of a bank roll last night. If you look close denny7000 at your coin [obverse] at 12:00 clock and the distance of the clip from tip to tip. Now look at the I found and compare it to yours. I'm at 8:00 clock and the same rim at 2:00 clock [obverse]. I think these coins are almost twins in many ways. As a clip collector do you have matching clips, got me thinking of this. I don't collect these.   |

Chadcoins are you referring to the Blakesly Effect on both coins?

Obverses - Look at the rim on the first coin at 12:00 clock and the rim and on coin #2 at the rim at 2:00 clock. There both straight across from the main clip. The rims are incomplete.

Hears a close up of my coin at 2:00 clock what I'm talking about. I think the other coin is missing the rim at 12:00 too. Looks like the rim isn't full height.  |

That is correct. Upright mill issues(pressure drop) caused by the clip lead to this. Some may or may not be as extreme as this.

Opposite of the pole. I don't collect these or studied them but now I know. Going to fully read that.

That makes sense, that 2008 clip I posted has that opposite to the pole mark too on the rim.

Chadcoins I have a lot of clips but I don't think I have any that are the same, I don't think it's possible with all the variables (depth of clip, position on coin, year) I believe all clips are unique and if you did find two the same it would be coincidence. Here's another one of my clips, a little larger.   |
