Double clipped planchet error. Large curved clipped planchet at 3/9 o’clock and small clip at the bottom of the coin. No perceptible Blakesley Effect visible but clear signs of metal flow and fish tailing near both clipped areas.

A nice incomplete planchet / clipped planchet error. Lovely fishtailing of the legends near the missing region of the coin.

Interesting incomplete planchet error. Planchet thins out quickly near the missing region of the coin. Could be argued that it is a type of clipped planchet (perhaps an end-of-bar) but visually it’s quite different to the typical error of that type. Not often seen on decimal coins.

Interesting clipped planchet error on a State Series Commemorative the Northern Territory 2001 Centenary of Federation 20 cent coin. The first such error we’ve seen on one of these commemorative 20 cent pieces. The curved clip is a decent size and fish-tailing is clear on the ELIZ on the obverse.
