JimmyD Pillar of the Community Canada 8775 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 09:13 am Nice straight clip. It's a wonder that it stayed in circulation long enough to get that worn. Report this Post to the Staff

Yorkish Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 11:50 am @JimmyD I know, it's crazy to think that it managed to stay out of a collectors hands for so long. But it just serves as further proof to me that the old errors are still out there to be found! Report this Post to the Staff
Cecilia Sowinski Valued Member United States 100 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 3:23 pm What's a Blaksley Effect? Report this Post to the Staff
Ghawk Valued Member United States 69 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 3:44 pm The Blakesley Effect is when theres no pressure applied opposite of the clip causing a flat spot in the rim (the weak rim area opposite of the clip). Edit: Named after Mr. Blakesley, an American numismatist who first described it. And also, it doesn't always occur on clipped planchets but yours clearly shows it.

Rothery Pillar of the Community United States 1236 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 3:45 pm Quote: What's a Blaksley Effect? To sum it up: It's rim weakness directly opposite from the actual clip on the coin Report this Post to the Staff
Yorkish Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 4:06 pm @Ghawk so what does that mean for this coin? How do you suppose it could have the blakesly effect and be a clipped planchet and how does it only appear on some? This is something worth learning for sure. If you have any reference material bookmarked I would love to read up on it. For now off to google to research it for myself lol Edited by Yorkish 01/21/2021 4:08 pm Report this Post to the Staff
sheldius Valued Member United States 430 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 4:32 pm When the blank is turned into a planchet, it goes through what is called the upsetting mill. This is basically a pair of rollers that push the edge of the blank in an creates the rim. So if there is a clip, the rollers can't apply pressure right, and the opposite side of the coin is "weak" as you see here. It helps confirm this is a real clip and not after it left the mint.

merclover Pillar of the Community United States 4954 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 5:01 pm Yorkish, use the search box found at the top left of every CCF page. There is a wealth of info therein! ça va bien aller Report this Post to the Staff
Yorkish Valued Member United States 137 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 5:05 pm @merclover I consulted google first but the forum search bar is my next stop I promise! @sheldius thank you for the explanation! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 48654 Posts	Posted 01/21/2021 5:18 pm Everyone calls these straight clips, but they aren't clipped on the edge. That is the edge of the stock material. So I feel it is OK to call this an incomplete planchet. Richard S. Cooper Some have asked about my images I use and I'm glad to say, you can now you can see the DVD in sections on youtube: 1. Intro, older coins, toned coins 2. Doubled dies 3. Die events, One of a kind errors 4. So called errors, Coin information 5.
