spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 03/28/2017 02:41 am It is possibly the slightest clip I've seen but, I think it is one. The rim looks correct leading to it and, as I've been told, the Blakesley effect can be more prominent on small clips (flattening/weakening of devices and rim directly opposite the clip). Your example shows both.

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 03/28/2017 12:25 pm This is called a "rim clip". It is most definitely is legit... good catch!!

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/29/2017 10:12 pm What's with the symmetrical rim dings between C & A and D & A in CANADA? Part of the clipping process or coincidence? Report this Post to the Staff
robmck1967 Pillar of the Community Canada 870 Posts	Posted 03/29/2017 11:11 pm Coincidence. The dings are PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 03/29/2017 11:21 pm I guess odd things happen. They're both exactly 17 denticles from the start of the clip. Report this Post to the Staff
braat New Member Canada 31 Posts	Posted 03/31/2017 12:20 pm Thank you all for your responses! I'll be 2X2'ing it...finding coins like this one is cool but they get put away and quickly I'm back to roll hunting quarters where (for me) the real fun is..the treasure hunt! :) Report this Post to the Staff
