    Yep, certainly looks legit to me, though I'm no specialist in such things. I'll leave the more experienced error/variety folks to discuss Blakesly effect and all that stuff.

    Is the edge thinner on the opposite side of the clip?

    Looks like a weak rim from reverse picture
    All good I’d say

    It's not actually clipped. It's an Incomplete Planchet.

    Dearborn Above average collector - Is that an Error?

    This brings up a good point. Does the Royal Mint use the same process of upsetting a blank into a planchet, thus allowing the the Blakesly effect to form? Or is their process different?
