spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/06/2017 01:57 am It's just damaged. It has the appearance of a clipped (or incomplete) planchet but, the widened and flattened rim being retained in the same shape says not a clip. Metal on the coin was moved around after striking (i.e. post-mint damage[ PMD]). That's why the inwardly expanded rim overlaps the first 1 in the date. I hope this helps. Keep searching and never hesitate to ask!
