Yesterday a roll of 1966 LMC arrived that I ordered from ebay, and I found this minor clipped coin in the roll. The die scratches are plentiful on these 1966's. Enjoy!

Real deal. Straight clipped cent. Showing a little Blakesley affect on the opposite edge of the over the edge of the metal edge of the stock material:

This can be seen on one side or both sides of a clipped planchet issue. (straight or curved clips)
On the farther over the edge straight clips, the Blakesley affect is not noticed:

Nice clip!

I can't tell if it's a straight clip or a small curved clip. Does it show as a ragged clip or can you see the shear/breakaway signature on the edge in that area?
