Spence Moderator United States 34413 Posts	Posted 06/24/2022 4:04 pm @dru, first welcome to CCF. Second, yes sorry but someone has ground away the rim on a normal cent. This isn't a mint error, such as a clipped planchet.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21610 Posts	Posted 06/24/2022 4:18 pm to the CCF Agree with the others, not a clip, just damaged. Possibly someone was trying to make it look like a clip but didn't do a very good job so they put it back into circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96250 Posts	Posted 06/24/2022 4:35 pm That cent was clipped - or ground down After it left the mint. It is just a culled, damaged coin. But just for kicks, can you post up an image of the damaged edge? I'm curious if it was ground off or cut off with diagonal cutters. Collecting since 1972.
