I have gotten in the habit of stopping by chase bank anywhere from usually three to five times a week to pick up usually six or sometimes eight rolls of circulated pennies for my error and variety hunting. Yesterday I picked up four rolls and found this 1976 chipped planchette error It's relatively small at 12:00 but I've been trying to keep an eye out for one on my hunts and haven't found one before this so pretty excited even if it's not a large chip or considered valuable but it's for my collection anyways so I have no intention of selling anything I'm come across. I always ask you guys for your advice and help and expertise. I always get the information I can't find myself easily rapidly and accurately from this community so I figured I would post a picture of my new find. I'm surprised no one has pulled it from circulation seeing is how it's from 1976 but it's also not extremely noticeable because of its size unless you're actually looking for it probably. Thank you guys again I found many error and variety coins in my short time and keep growing my collection which I'd never have gotten close to what I've learned so far in a short time without all you guys! I appreciate all the help you guys provide. This is by far one of my favorite hobbies I've ever had in my life.

Jblau190,
Very nice find.
Your photos look a bit out of focus,what are you using to take photos with? Also,best practice is to take pics of coins not in any kind of holder whenever possible.

Sometimes good things come in small packages. It is a small clip but still a nice find.

Very nice clip. If you take a photo edge on you will see the edge is half ragged and half smooth at the site of the clip.
