Newp... Early Commem Error

Well I wanted to thank member Seanq for giving me a heads up on a major clip collection that was available that formally belonged to his friend. Although I do not collect clipped planchets by type, I do on tougher issues where they should have been caught prior to leaving the Mints. Well finding an error on a Early Commem is just as scarce as on a Proof or Gold coin. So when I saw this Isabella although just a rim clipped planchet I just had to have it as it is one of my favorite commems. Also as I've researched errors and commems the last and only other example I know of with a clip sold in 1979. It also had a lot of pluses that enticed me... only quarter issued, Barber design, pre 20th century, original skinned, Unc, etc.

Enjoy! image

    10-4, thanks Broadstruck. It's threads like this that keeps me coming back. Numismatic knowledge is a image thing.

    That did come from NEN, and as Broadstruck said I have known the collector who sold it to them for years. A couple of months ago I posted a bunch of pictures of additions to my clipped type set, which came from the same gentleman, and I said then that my coins were his "B" material. Congrats to Broadstruck for giving an example of my friend's "A" material a new home.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
