aristarchus123 Pillar of the Community United States 1695 Posts	Posted 07/05/2016 7:28 pm I found this coin in a bank roll, but I can't tell if it is a straight clipped planchet or PMD. I don't see any evidence of the Blakesley effect. Thoughts appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

aristarchus123 Pillar of the Community United States 1695 Posts	Posted 07/06/2016 11:18 am Thanks, everyone. The ridge lines at the edge of the clip (visible in the first photo) puzzle me. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/06/2016 11:21 am I would like to see the edge of the clipped area better. It doesn't look like it tapers correctly. But I do see weakness on the 'T' on the reverse though. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/07/2016 6:27 pm Two bad signs. 1. Note the mark on the edge of the clipped area? They are cut in a downward slice. Not at a cross angle like you coin is showing on the edge. 2. Note the rim on both sides. If the rim were there, it would be rounded and not flat looking. It looks like it was bent inwards toward the center of the coin. Definitely PSD. Not a mint error. Thanks for the extra images. Edited by coop 07/07/2016 7:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
