Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73919 Posts	Posted 08/09/2019 7:41 pm Not a fake. It's legitimate, as it shows every signs of a real Clipped Planchet. The Blakesley Effect is there too. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/09/2019 7:44 pm Looks legit to me. The letter that I see fading is the 'A' on the last image. The Blaksely is there and the blank looks like it was cut from the obverse to the reverse side according to what I see on the coin. Great images.

Sir Derrin Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 08/09/2019 7:44 pm Time to educate me... The edges looked filed to me is why I said not legitimate... I need to research Blakesley effect.. Report this Post to the Staff

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 08/09/2019 7:55 pm Well that's exciting, I could see it through the bag so I pulled it out. I wasn't planning on going through them today but now I might have to. Report this Post to the Staff
Sir Derrin Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 08/09/2019 7:56 pm Blakesley effect = light strike opposite the clipped area basically.. Ok Now can someone explain the filed look I see? Also it looks far to clean to me on the actual clipped edge for the other circulation marks I see on the rest of the coin? I don't doubt the guys that have the knowledge just trying to understand...
