<p>[QUOTE="wokeupscreamin, post: 800297, member: 22398"]here are my thoughts. The scratch marks seem to be unrelated to the clip due to their orientation. If they were parallel i would agree. They cant be vice marks cause then they would also be on the obverse as a vice has two jaws. Even if one jaw had a cover, to make that mark on the reverse, it would atleast leave marks on the rim of the front. Is it possible that due to the clipped planchet it got stuck in a machine causing a jam and making those marks? Also, I've cut alot of metal in my life and I dont know of any tool or saw that would make such a clean cut. It has no teeth marks, grind marks, ect and is a super clean cut. There is no warping to the coin and the top of the r and s are still intact. The redbook says clips can be straight and the coin is the same thickness through out so it isnt flattened. If you think this is post mint, please come up with a scenario that would support your claim. Im interested.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
