Ugly Pillar of the Community Canada 1733 Posts	Posted 03/24/2011 11:22 am Easy way to help define a clipped planchet is put another coin just like it into the groove, it should fit perfectly. This looks like someone threw it at the wall. Hard. Repeatedly. In anger at the loss of it's purchasing power. Report this Post to the Staff
Imohtep Valued Member Canada 321 Posts	Posted 03/24/2011 11:49 am well I dont think it can be classified as a clip as it doesn't go all the way through the coin but if you look at the ring that goes around the coin in the spots that its been dented in look like its just completely missing almost..very noticeable in the last picture Edited by Imohtep 03/24/2011 11:50 am Report this Post to the Staff
