commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12254 Posts	Posted 03/09/2022 6:48 pm To me, the clip was created/added after the token had already been struck. I don't see any Blakesley effect on the rim opposite the clip nor do I see any of the expected strike weakness near the clip - these would be hallmarks of a clipped planchet.
