Back in 1995, I found this coin in a Mint wrapped roll of 1995 50 cent coins. Not sure how scarce this coin error is, and what would the value be for this coin.

The obverse shows almost four clear clip marks.

Thank you!

That is the blakesley effect. Not two additional clips. Notice that they are exact opposite of the clips. This is a direct result of the clips.

Thank you for your comment. I used 'almost quad clipped' because a seller on ebay for a nickel dollar coin referenced it to a similar coin....

I am still learning. Thank you!

The blakesley effect is a key thing to look for when determining if a 'clip' is genuine. Yours is nice. Clips are great, double clips better. The most clips I have on one coin is 3.

Nice coin, and not too baggy for a 1995... I went through an entire mint box of 1995 50-cent rolls, and finding anything above MS-62 was a treat.
