Okay I think this is a clipped planchet. If so besides it looking like it. How to tell if legit? Does anyone collect them. This is an excellent coin. ms-65 or 66, I believe. That's my story and I am sticking to it. Fill me in. Yes I tried looking it up.

I'm not good at judging clips but this looks legit to me. I think this will be the next error I'll look more into.

Very cool double clip if it's legit.

I see whispers of the Blakesley effect opposite to both clips. This is a super coin @gros!

Spence describe one of the main thing to see. Also you look the coin by side. On clip planchet the cut must be strait 90 deg.

This one would make a good discussion point. The clips, the Blaksley affect, the weakness of the devices near the clip and other subjects could be covered? Probably too obvious though.
