<p>[QUOTE="KurtS, post: 2089081, member: 11786"]I'm going to say real clip, because you can see the "Blakesley Effect" on the opposite rim. When a clipped planchet goes through the upsetting mill to get a rim, the lack of pressure on the clipped portion results in a weakly raised rim on the opposing side. Such machines were in use even in 1889. I also think the gap in the denticles in AME<b>RIC</b>A points to being struck that way--imo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
