A commonly found error coin type is the clipped planchet. This is one of the most well-known and popular coin errors, and it is found on coins ranging from the colonial era of the 1700s to 21st-century proof coins. There are many types of clipped planchets. Although they are different in how they appear, they are all created when either the planchet strip is not fed properly into a blanking press or there is a defect in the planchet strip itself, resulting in missing metal from a coin’s edge area. The missing metal makes the coin look like it has been “clipped” of some of its metal.
