    @i2i The second 1944 is not a clip but damage.

    IMO I think you would get more replies if you didn't post so many coins on the same thread. Or, maybe you don't want any replies?

    Always mr negative. Its real.
    I thought you'd question the string (wire?) on both sides of the 1920. Not to mention that it is included in "1940's". You're slipping.

    The clip at the end of the planchet pinched and lifted, leaving what is equivalent to a lamination error. You can see the top of the lettering of the "I" and the "N" actually on top of this psuedo-lamination copper. This strip was pressed down during the mint but has lifted up over time, just like a lamination error. 20190625_165440.jpg

    Mr. P., you should know better than to disagree with him.

    I agree with @paddyman98. The OP has been posting for awhile and has gotten accurate answers as well as error reference sites from which to learn. It’s disappointing that he insists that obvious PMD are mint errors.


    But, maybe we can salvage this thread into a learning opportunity for new collectors with an interest in errors and varieties.


    Take the coin that the OP is insisting is a clipped planchet. Many times, a new collector will see the missing area. But to a hobbyist who has done some research, they can easily see that the edge has lines parallel to the top/bottom. These lines are from a grinder or some other abrasive tool. True curved clipped planchets have a “punch and tear” surface of the clipped edge as shown in the pic below (from www.error-ref.com). No grinding marks.

    Also notice how the rim is strong right up to the missing area. The rim on a true clipped planchets will always be weak/soft next to the clip. There are other ways to verify a curved clip as well. The following site has a really nice explanation of the 5 characteristics of a clipped planchet. After a few minutes, even a newbie should be able to tell that the coin in the previous posts is not an error

    http://www.error-ref.com/_curved_clips

    BTW: www.error-ref.com is one of the sites that new collectors with an interest in errors should book mark.


    I know that new collectors and lurkers reading this thread may be concerned that the OP has been treated rather harshly. He is a special case who occasionally insists that obviously damaged coins are errors. Many of the members on CT enjoy helping new collectors. Sometimes we don’t have time to provide an in depth answer like the one above, but you can be assured that if 2 or 3 opinions are saying the same thing, then that’s what you have. Hope this helps.

    @i2i You do have a couple laminations (the rev through the C in CENT and the 1944 with the line running from the S in TRUST through the coin), but a couple of the coins are have too much circulation damage to determine anything. The 1920 is scratched. It's easy to see the displaced metal, which is a dead giveaway that it isn't a strikethrough

    It's late enough that @paddyman98 has had his coffee. That's why he provided a nice truthful answer. The response by the op tells me he got up late and hasn't had any coffee yet.

    All I see, except for the one lamination error, is damage.
