Take a look at this

Been busy bankroll roll hunting and I found this, and it looks to be a clipped Lincoln cent with a extra shoulder, to the left of the clip. Although the clip did not go all the way threw, I finally found a good one lol

I'm sorry, but I'm having a very, very hard time seeing this as anything other than a mixture of damage and cancer.

 

Yeah, I am also seeing damage.

 

sorry but not a good one.. agree its damaged, toss it an move on...

 

Echoing what everyone else has said - Just damage.

 

Hammer, pliers and screwdriver. The tools for making good errors on CoinTalk.

 

A clip occurs before the coin is struck. I don't think I have ever heard of a "clip that did not go all the way through".

 

And don't forget a bench vice.

Someone squeezed 2 coins together. Sorry but PMD

 

Yes there are such things as incomplete clips, this is not one of them. This is just Post Strike Damage.

 

Well as all stated PMD a nice case of good old PMD IMO I would keep it to show newbies when they think they hit the jack pot.IMO

In my understanding, a clip starts off life when a blank is cut and one part overlaps either another hole where a blank was cut out or overlaps the edge of the strip. How would an "incomplete clip" come about? Any examples?

 

Punch fails to penetrate the strip completely, strip advances but not fully and next punch overlaps the previous partially punched area. Resulting blank has an arc that cuts partially through it on both sides.
