Minnimarine Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 10:14 pm Now I got a good idea what I'm looking for I remembered this little guy I put off to the side to come back to. I need the experts on this. They are almost straight across each other and I can see part of the Blakeley effect on the west side of the coin at his shoulder. I dont know about I guess that gouge above the date. The first thee pics of the rim is the East side clip. Last three are of the west side clip. If they are clips. Thank y'all Report this Post to the Staff

Minnimarine Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 03/14/2021 11:48 am Actually looks like maybe needle nose pliers did that. Slipped and caused the gouge above the date. Well got excited after finding a actual clip. I had doubt when I saw them straight across from each other. Tossed to the junk bucket. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
