Saw this on ebay. Do you guys think it's genuine? From how I understand a clipped coin happens I don't see it. Curious what you guys think.

I have several triple clipped coins, so it is possible. The depth and position of the clips looks strange on the coin in the ebay listing and it seems to have some odd flattening in addition to the clips, so I'm not sure it's legit.

What do the other members think of the ebay coin? Does it look a little strange?

Here's a triple clipped 1964-(P) from my collection.

To my eye the ebay example looks suspicious - quite different from those typically shown here on the CCF.

It is a triple clip. The other two just look weaker:
