Clipped Kennedy

I'm in the process of buying a bunch of old, mangled silver coins from a guy who's father in law owned a laundromat (these were the silver coins that got caught or spit out by the machines). He had a few clad pieces too. I opened up the bin of clad halves just to see if there was anything worth while, and this thing was right on top. Funny--I wonder why the machine spit it out? image

Its a nice BU piece, at least an MS64, probably a 65. Blakesly effect is present. Ideas on value?

    Goldeneye-Nice large clip on the 72.

    tydye, I've got a similar clip on my 64 Kennedy. Nice coin. image What is the error on the wheat cent? I cannot tell from the photo. Is it broadstruck?

    The wheat cent looks like it was encased at one time or another, so it is not an error. The rest of the coins in that group are though. And, very nice ones, too. image

    Encased - that makes perfect sense. Thanks
