More pics are not needed, this simply a damaged coin. Look at your first photo of the edge- notice that it is thicker than the rest of the coin. Look at the photo of the reverse- the rim ding is nice and shiny because it is raised up higher than the rest of the coin. Another key indicator of damage is that the rim is complete around the entire coin, there is no break like a clip would produce.

I find Yokozuna's type of thing in nickels all the time, small things I think are clips-or are they?

If you are finding them all the time, then they are not incomplete planchets. You might find 1 out of every 10,000 or more coins searched if you are lucky but in reality it is probably more like 1 out of every 100,000 searched.

This one isn't a clip. Not the rim is flattened. On a clip there is no rim. Just fading devices near the rim.
