silverwolf Pillar of the Community Canada 3733 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 7:08 pm Not a true clip, if you look on the obverse side , you can see the displaced metal. That is only from post mint damage, a true clip happens before the coin is struck.. Report this Post to the Staff
fplagge Pillar of the Community United States 660 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 7:17 pm I'm thinking that the damage may have been made with a grinding wheel. {õ¿õ} Report this Post to the Staff
levelsofmadnes Pillar of the Community United States 3003 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 7:17 pm Thanks silverwolf. I agree about the metal displacement on the obverse. I have a few clips and none of them have this characteristic. I just expected there be more damage to the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 9:42 pm No Blakesley affect. I feel this coin was altered to try to home make an error coin to cash in on a phony. Report this Post to the Staff
