Hello, My first post here. I have what I think may be a planchet error. At first I thought it was just a smooshed coin or vise job. After reading this forum and going back to the Error-Ref site, I think it may be a planchet issue.

Thank you for your advise.

Not a planchet error. Looks like it got pinched or something. I am going to go with PMD.

Thank you.

I checked the "5 Diagnostics," listed in the error-ref site and wondered if it had the Blakesley effect. It was the rim that led me in the planchet direction.

@sam, first welcome to CCF. Second, it is a bit unusual to see a well-circulated clip as it seems they get pulled early on in their life, but I'm quite sure that this is exactly what you have there. Well done!

Looks like a clip to me and does indeed shows the Blakesley effect.
It's a keeper.

I must agree. There is a pretty obvious Blakesley effect. Good find!!

to the CCF I'm going against the grain here. I don't think it's legit. The Blakesley effect is not 180 degrees out and it looks like it was hit with a hammer that flattened the reeds at RT.

I respectfully disagree with you Cujohn. The Blakesley effect is there and the edge where the clipped area is, is correct.

How about a double clip. Note the clad/copper direction flips in the clipped areas.

At least one clip and by golly, TB may be correct about it being a double.

I never noticed that before, about the clad part and copper "changing places" on the edge.
