    A 1956 Silver Dime minted by the Philadelphia Mint. It has a straight clip making it a Incomplete Planchet Error. The first photo appears to be doubled but it’s not.

    What, no one has any comments? Is this a CT first? Lol

    Since it is an incomplete planchet, why didn't the high minting pressure present force silver outward at the edge ? I would think the edge would not be a straight even height area, even if the planchett was produced previous to the die action. It looks rather man made. Jim

    Oh. I have comments. This looks man-made in my opinion. On the other hand, I got nothing. screaming.gif

    In my opinion, it looks like post mint damage.

    I see what looks like Blakesley weakness on the opposite rim.

    Liquid nitrogen and force. There are a large number of Youtubes that use coins and liquid nitrogen, and as more become aware of it , the number will increase, I am afraid. Jim

    I think its a real planchet error coin. The rim edges are tapered, and the BE is quite obvious . We could use clearer photos.

    I say it's a genuine incomplete planchet.
    @alurid has given the correct attribution.

    I also see a bit of the Blakesley Effect opposite of the issue.
