wolverine Valued Member United States 277 Posts	Posted 06/10/2011 12:05 am I've bought similar Rosie's for $2-$3 each. I collect clipped coins, the most I ever spent on a dime was $6...don't know if that helps you or not Report this Post to the Staff
mitchhailey Pillar of the Community United States 1150 Posts	Posted 06/10/2011 03:06 am Those two coins have clipped rims. Occasionally a misfeed can occur where the strip of metal is not fed through the blanking machine far enough. When this happens, the punches strike an area of the strip which overlaps the hole left by the previous strike. The result is a blank with a piece missing, which is called a clipped planchet. A clipped planchet may be straight, curved, ragged, or elliptical. Report this Post to the Staff
