I found this LC about a month ago and as you can see a small part of the blank was missing befor it was stamped. As you can also see it was not smashed, the image is not distorted in any way. My question is dose this make it worth more? WP_20150729_018.webpWP_20150729_018.webp
 

A clipped planchet carries a slight premium. If the coin was in better shape, and had more of a clip, it would command a bigger premium.

The coin does not appear to have a normal Clip and pics of the edge of the coin are needed to possibly determine if the Clip was done at the Mint or is Post Mint damage or manipulation.
