    Error Planchet | Clipped planchet question...

    I found this clipped planchet and the word "LIBERTY" looks funny to me. I wanted to know if this is normal and if it isn't, what is wrong with it? Thanks.

      You kind of need to tell us what you are seeing differently, instead of saying,"what is wrong with it". I think you are referring to the I, which looks like it took a hit on the bottom and made it appear raised.
      Nice double clip by the way.
      Keep up the hunt!

        Thanks! To me the LBRTY in "LIBERTY" look low compared to the I and the E. Sorry for being so vague.

          Why doesn't the E and I look high? In any case, it's normal placement of the letters. Compare to a few other specimens. I love the double clip.

            Sweet double clip! Yeah i think he letters on some of those 60's coins looks like the guy was under the influence of some substance. The letters don't seem to line up.

                That's what I see, it looks like the bottom of the I was hit or something so the I looks higher compared to the rest.

                  I have seen a lot of the 60's liberty letters all over the place it seems compared to other years.
