Hi all I would also like grade opinions on this 1927 Canberra flown. It has clips on both sides at 12 o'clock. Cheers Gutshot

The clip looks "Kosher" to me

Can't see if there's any Blakesley effect without images of the whole coin, both sides.
It does appear 'kosher' though.

Its the first clipped Canberra I've seen. I think it would grade at PCGS but perhaps only AU58. Again - would be nice to see a proper pic of the whole coin.

OK,just going on last photo Coin looks like its been 'dipped',who knows exactly what mixture.I'm not sure that's a clip either,looks like part of the rim has broken off for whatever reason. After saying all that I'm sure one of our more knowledgeable members will express an opinion on your Coin.

I have a Canberra florin that is remarkably similar to yours except for the clip. A perfect strike and full 3 steps also very little wear evident, Unfortunately mine had been polished just like yours has going by your latest image.

This is a genuine clip. The Blakesley effect won't be present in every clip. With a clip this small, if there's a Blakesley effect, it will be very small. It is present in this coin, under the L of "florin".
