<p>[QUOTE="Oldhoopster, post: 2930333, member: 84179"]It looks like somebody was messing with it on a grinder. I do not believe it's a quad clip for the following reasons</p><p>* The edges of the rim next to clip are full. If the planchet was clipped, the metal would not flow up into the edge, completely filling that small area of rim when it would be less resistance for it to flow into the void space.</p><p>* It looks like the scratches along the "clip" follow the edge. Any marks left from punching would be vertical (Obs to reverse).</p><p>* I also don't see how you could have 4 equally spaced, tiny clips coming from the blanking punch. As the sheet goes through the machine, rounded clips come from misfeeds. How could there be a big area of metal with that has been punched on all 4 sides (small clips) and then have a blank punched out from the middle. I cannot see that happening in production.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
