chrisof4 Valued Member United States 274 Posts	Posted 11/23/2019 8:29 pm Hmmm...I thought the slight misshape opposite the clip was the Blakesley effect, but maybe not. If it is not a true clip, I definitely want to know. Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 11/23/2019 9:17 pm I'm gonna say it's a true clip. The Blakesley is there, it's just not as strong as some that I've seen. The actual clip looks right. What's the weight of the coin? You can figure out the percentage of metal that's missing. chrisof4 I'm posting my quarter to compare the look of the clips. I don't want to steal your topic. If you want me to remove my picture, please let me know. I can edit my reply for 24 hours.

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 11/23/2019 10:59 pm It shows the expected tapered rims leading into the clip for a legit example. Blakesley Effect isn't always 100% and this is a fairly large coin with a small clip. I think it's the real deal.

I will get some pictures of the side of the coin tomorrow and add them to this thread. Thank you to everyone else for the input as well! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/24/2019 1:08 pm Its there. Just follow the rim around and you can see where is happens on the OP's coin. The shape of the rim changes. Report this Post to the Staff
