  • Mint Error Definition
    Clipped Planchet: Incomplete Clip
    This error occurs when the blanking press is punching out blanks, and does not punch all the way through the planchet strip. Then the planchet strip is not advanced forward all the way, and the blanking press then (successfully) punching out blanks which overlap the previously partially punched out blanks.

    The resulting blanks will have an arching line across both sides of the coin. Examples are known with multiple incomplete clips on the same coin.

  • Listed on Variety Vista as the VDDR-001
    You may know it as the "Doubled Earring".

    I had a stash of beautful fresh P Maya rolls and decided to open a few earlier this year...
    Pulled about ten of these out of one of the rolls.
    Did some searching and couldn't find a single graded example anywhere!

    When I realized I couldn't find any graded examples I decided to send a few nice ones off.
    Went and picked them up today
    There's no way I'm the first to get some of these graded... right?!!

  • Have been told this is solder added on which I also believe but shouldn't it have added just a slight more bit of weight even considering wear on the coin itself
