And if not worth grading? Its in decent shape in my eyes. And what about my lightning what am I doing wrong or what do I need to give best puctures? Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21603 Posts	Posted 08/16/2025 07:11 am Looks more like it was intentionally done that a straight clip. This would have to be a corner clip and the angle should be closer to 90 degrees plus there is no Blakesly effect. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34402 Posts	Posted 08/16/2025 07:27 am These pix are quite good--focus and lighting are fine. It would be great to have a couple pictures of the edge in the region of the potential clips though.

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6498 Posts	Posted 08/16/2025 10:39 am The cut along the obverse bottom shows crushing and a metal edge. That was done by some kind of metal shears or a press. You can also see that the reverse rim is bent towards the R, which should not happen in a clipped planchet. Report this Post to the Staff
