1941 wheat clipped with metal attached

I have a 1941 wheaty that has a small clip.(well partial clip) I say this because it still retains the clipped metal . Would this be worth anything. I really can't believe that it still has the small metal fragment attached after all these years.your thoughts

No its just a small clip

It's hard for me to tell if that is a partial clip or PMD.

damage, post mint

 

It looks like a clip in hand and not so much pmd. But I been wrong before. Thank you guys ,

 

My opinion was posted before the photo. Your coin is damaged.

 

Unfortunately it's an impact, not a clip. The proof is in the angled metal displacement up and towards the inside of the obverse. A clip is by definition a nice clean vertical cut, given that the press involved is so overwhelmingly tougher than copper that it's capable of cutting the entire width of the feed sheet at once.

 

Thank you guys. Now I know, and knowing is better than not. Although it would have been nice as a clip , still interesting though. Appreciate all the help guys

 

The term Clipped Planchet refers to an area of a blank planchet that is missing a part only because another complete blank planchet was punched from that area. So it would not leave any piece hanging as in your coin. Think about it

 

Understood., I'm not very versed in error coins. Just trying to learn more and more.still strangely damaged. May keep it just for the oddness of it
