Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 05/22/2019 05:40 am Yes sorry @ag, but I agree with the others that this looks more like damage than a clip. Can you also post a pic of this area on the edge? Thx.

alwaysgavino Valued Member United States 122 Posts	Posted 05/22/2019 11:50 am Its in a 1994S proof set let me crack it out. Will post another picture. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/22/2019 1:56 pm I'm doubting this is a clip. It does look more like damage. A clip would show a partial arc of a nickel outside edge. Just not seeing that on this one. But an edge view would be great. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/22/2019 2:22 pm The inner edge of the rim should be a smooth curve. On the OP coin where the "clip" is the inner edge of the rim bow inward toward the center. Not a clip but an edge dent to has pushed the rim inward slightly. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 05/23/2019 9:23 pm Those are really nice pics--thanks for adding them to this thread. Despite the fact that you cracked this out of the mint packaging, it still looks like damage to me.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/23/2019 9:23 pm Seems illogical for a proof coin, but this must be PSD. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74592 Posts	Posted 05/23/2019 9:25 pm Yep, PSD unfortunately. A hit caused the rim to get pushed in. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/23/2019 11:08 pm The added images show that the affected area raised the rim. So it was done after the strike. But was it dropped at the mint before it was sealed in the proof set? Doesn't really matter now, as it was removed. (hard to prove now) but it is not a striking error. Thanks for the extra images. Always nice to know for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
