Shylock - your coin is dated 1906... just not in the normal place.
Here's my contribution, undated but you can narrow it down to 1918 or 1919. I count five clips on this coin:

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

I've been meaning to post this for a while. This is a pair of Large Cent blank planchets. Although these are obviously undated, it seems that the can be dated to different date ranges. If you look at the two, the one of the left the one on the right has much broader rims than the one on the left. The broad-rimmed one is apparently the later one, dating to 18xx-1857. The narrow-rimmed one is earlier.
Unfortunately, I don't have a source for that information, and I don't know the two date ranges in question. Can anyone cite an appropriate reference? For that matter, I think that there are actually three types of Large Cent blank planchets that can be distinguished. Anyone have a pic of the third?

It's an 1861-S in case you're wondering...Mike
<< <i>NOT an error. >>
It was drilled in error.
Braddick - 1972, very little doubt about it. Post the reverse and I'll be 100% certain.
Seanq - Sorry, you've got yours rounded down to the least common denominator...but I do agree, 1918 or 1919.
