jfeed Pillar of the Community United States 1259 Posts	Posted 07/30/2024 7:58 pm It sure looks like someone took a pair or snips or hack saw to this 1968 D cent. I'm not good at clips so I thought I would get opinions. Thanks... Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94892 Posts	Posted 07/30/2024 9:06 pm I think it is legit. the funny arc on the clip is caused by the metal movement towards the empty center area.

ErrorsRcool Valued Member United States 101 Posts	Posted 07/31/2024 08:23 am Good day jfeed. I'm a bit sceptical because of the way the rim appears to have been damaged by plyers above the T in Trust. The rim appears to be crushed into the T, but the other letters, rust don't. On a side note: one of these days I have to find out what a Blakesley Effect is that Tacc mentioned. ErrorsRCool. Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 07/31/2024 08:29 am It's a genuine curved (concave) clip. The E of CENT shows significant distortion (metal flow), which is proof positive of its authenticity. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff
