It's PMD, I can tell, because it looks like it was cut with a saw, with the extra metal up along the edge of the cut. |

You're welcome!
And I don't think I've seen anything labeled "miscut"

Given the state of the economy, many more folks have turned to making their own error coins in the hopes of selling a cent for $5.00 or more.

Any Blakesley effect? Quote:

The weakness opposite the clip on a clipped planchet error coin. This occures during the upsetting process, because of the clip there is a lack in pressure to upset the rim directly opposite the clip. |

That and also... clips originating from machinery at the mint would tend to be either part of a precise round, or a clip that is precisely straight. This one seems to be a bit of a wavery miscut.

A common thing for some people to make a few dollars. Used to do that with Silve coins. Now with some they have switched to Copper. They cut off a small piece, still use it as a Cent, accumulate piles of those cut offs. They now sell to metal recyclers. Sounds like a lot of work but if your out of work, any little bit helps.

That seems like a lot of work for not a lot of return.
