I was looking at this link on coinsandcanada, and I saw a variety of a clipped planchet that I've never seen before. A corner clip. Does anybody have one? Or have a picture of a Canadian example of one? https://www.coinsandcanada.com/coin...anchet&id=26 |

I'm not sure how a disk can have a corner.

If the planchet is cut from the corner of the strip, as shown in the coinsandcanada article that XWLCoins posted.  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

That was very interesting read thank you. I didn't think clips were a big thing until one gets a wide variety of them. I had no idea that the higher the grade the more they fetch, and I was giving them away for nothing right out of the mint rolls. HaHaHa.

I have a couple hundred clips, but I do not have a corner clip. Never seen one, thanks darryldarryl for the pics, has to be kinda rare. On my must find list now.

I found what I believe to be a clipped coin straight from a mint roll;
but it's a very mild clip.
I was collecting the quarters in 1992;
Every month, I went to the bank to get a roll;
One roll had a quarter that didn't have the serrations(?) all the way around - and you could see it through the clear plastic wrap.
I had thought that these errors happened post stamping - something to do with the coin not quite getting out of the way before the next one was stamped?
I am NOT an expert on this stuff.
That was a neat article.
I attended college in 99/00 and unfortunately all my quarter rolls ended up being opened, and all except for a few examples of each were spent so I could eat - but I did keep that one "clipped" quarter (off the top of my head I cannot recall which month/Province it was).

Missing from your examples of clips is the Assay or Inside Corner Clip. I don't have an example on a Canadian coin but do have one on a US Coin. Not sure this type even exists on a Canadian coin. They are rare.   |
