Looks like reeding ? Is it a clip ? Report this Post to the Staff

I have a cent that looks like the obverse only, except 2-3x as wide, starting 2-3x further toward the center and slices both downward toward the rim so that upon exit is about half-thickness and also at a slight sideways angle like yours..

I'm thinking straight clip and wondering if what looks like "reeding" is actually the contour that was on the edge of the sheet the planchet was punched from ? Report this Post to the Staff
kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 7:14 pm I think it's a clip but so small that there is no Blakesley Effect. Report this Post to the Staff
11997755 Pillar of the Community United States 2253 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 8:49 pm I guess it could be PSD directly across from the clip on the rim of the obverse and reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
