dant5150 Valued Member 120 Posts	Posted 05/11/2021 8:44 pm My only find with this wonderful error and I am still looking for a Cud. Got a Canadian Quarter with a Die Chip positioned next to a whale that a dirty mind might think the whale was being dirty, lol... maybe I'll post that later. No specific questions here, just sharing because I can. Report this Post to the Staff

I Googled the term straight away. Thank you for the information... I had a thought while posting, maybe I shouldn't call this a clip, something will be wrong about it and it won't be an error anymore. Report this Post to the Staff
M_d_in_guy Pillar of the Community Canada 1049 Posts	Posted 05/12/2021 06:35 am Pretty common on the 1980 cent. Blakesly is there and so yes a legit clip also the rim angles of cut at the clip, evidence it's legitimacy. Report this Post to the Staff
silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 05/17/2021 11:40 pm This it is a clip. No sign of Blakesly effect. Quote: The Blakesley Effect is a term used to describe inefficient metal flow, opposite a clip on a coin ( "opposite a clip on a coin" it means the effect will be more or less CW/CCW180 degrees around the rim) from the clipped area., when the rim is formed and the subsequent imperfect or incomplete rim formed at that position after striking.
