hmmmm, seems a good candidate for an hour long soak in good ol acetone (pure) might get rid of the greenish hue from govenment plastic mint set holder, perhaps..will show after pics later on this thread...thanks for reading, i appreciate the likes!!
2 1/2 hour dip in acetone, swished it around both sides, still looks the same to me, greenish toning, yuk
oh, and been home all week, esepcially after mail run, usually 2 pm, just got email from fedex, my order from great collections (late by a week) is now in their facility after making a final del. attempt?? wt?/ nope, not one, no card on door, no nock no nothing, guess 1200.oo in coins is lost now..have to drive 40 miles tomorrow to get them 9if they exist) today was fraught with madness and idiocy!!
Correct numismatic term is curved clip as outlined/used on Error-ref.com. https://www.error-ref.com/_curved_clips_/. Scientific or the OCD term is incomplete planchet. JMO. I think TPG's use what they are paid to use.
The correct term is an incomplete planchet. As to the type of the incomplete planchet, it’s a curved clip.
I believe this is an end “clip”, but is it considered an incomplete planchet when there never was any metal there to begin with?
The correct cause/effect is an Incomplete Planchet The 'correct' term, in use for 100+ years is Clipped Planchet. "Correct" in the sense of it's been used for so long that even new collectors know what a coin will look like. We can all agree that incomplete planchet is more accurate, but clipped planchet is more descriptive and an easier term to use. We've had this discussion for over 50+ years, and 99.5% of collectors and dealers use the term 'Clipped', like it or not, when writing, texting, or talking about them..
Yours is an incomplete planchet. The type of clip is called a straight clip, which is more than likely from the side, not the end.
that is exactly why it is an incomplete planchet, nothing was "clipped" it is due tio an overlap in stamping original planchets, one was over another or one as in your case came at end of strip, and woops, incomplete planchet, let er rip anyways@@!!
