robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 08:16 am I know this coin has issues - but that gunk should come off with some pure acetone. Is it a real clip though? Report this Post to the Staff

robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 10:24 am maybe there are more incomplete planchets up there to the north. Report this Post to the Staff

Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 01/22/2012 10:08 pm the denticles are damaged well beyond the clip and the clip area is alot more worn than the rim of the coin. even for a worn coin shouldnt it have a "hard" edge if it was a clip and not PMD? picture of the edge profile would help.

Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 01/22/2012 10:24 pm Can we get a pic of the opposite end of the clip? Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 01/23/2012 12:23 am The denticles are not damaged, they are just weakly struck as will be all details nearest to the site of the clip. That strike weakness is one of the major diagnostics for an incomplete(clipped) planchet along with the Blakesley Effect. The clip itself should have a tapered appearance, a hard edge is a sure sign of alteration. Report this Post to the Staff
