    Error Planchet | Legit Clip or PSD??

    Sometimes I wish I wasn't as ignorant as the day is long when it comes to errors and varieties. On the other hand I love learning.
    Found this and I'm not sure if it's a legitmate clip error or just post strike/mint damage. I need a verdict please. Thanks everyone.

    The way the rim appears to initially follow the path "inward" (if you will, especially on the obverse), I'd say PSD.

      If I could see the rim area where the clip occurred I would draw a definitive conclusion. A closer examination would be required.

      PS I will add a link here to show what the different types of clips:

        It appears to me to be a straight clip and it shows the Blakesley effect opposite the clip. My opinion.

          I agree with Steven. Looks like a genuine clip to me.

              It is a clipped planchet and a keeper. The Blakesley effect opposite of the clip is really nice. Nice Find, CONGRATS!!!

                Well I guess I got to go with the experts,since it is a straight clip. I was thinking straight clip but the edge was what threw me off course. Thanks for sharing everyone. I just learned another coin term "Blakesly Effect" Many more to go.

                  Thanks everyone. I posted it because of the rim effect on the opposite side and thought it might be the Blakesley effect but was without any confidence since there is still so much for me to learn regarding errors. Thanks again. And yes, I'm very happy to have found it in a roll.

                      I wasn't sure about it being a clip or not. Sometimes these get me going in opposite directions.
                      Congratulations Rock!!

                          Excellent find! Just one of many reasons to roll search.
