1920-D Lincoln Wheat Cent Curved Clip Error Clipped Planchet F Denver Mint Error

A curved clip happens when the punch that cuts coin blanks from the metal strip overlaps a spot that was already punched. The blank comes out with a curved bite missing from its edge, and the rim fades away where metal is missing. Sometimes the opposite side of the coin shows a weak spot in the design (the Blakesley effect), but we only mention that when we can actually see it.

This exact 1920-D Lincoln cent has a small curved clip on the obverse rim beside the lower right of Lincoln’s coat, where the rim curves inward and fades out. We do not see a clear Blakesley weakness on the opposite side, so we do not claim one. The D mint mark is clear. The coin grades F in our opinion, brown, with a small dark nick near the T of CENT on the reverse. This coin is stored in a vinyl flip. Please view all of the close-up photos.

SHIPPINGEvery coin we sell ships in protective packaging — no exceptions. The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1/4" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.
RETURNS / GUARANTEEWe maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy. All we want is happy customers — if you don’t like what we send, just send it back, free of charge.
QUESTIONS? CONTACT USContact us Monday–Friday, 9–5 EST, with any questions or concerns. Our number one goal is happy customers who buy from us time and time again. If you ever have an issue, please let us know — and remember, our return policy above has you covered.
GRADING DISCLAIMERWe arrive at an approximate grade using a combination of our own years of experience and, increasingly, Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are not a professional grading service, and any grade shown is only an approximation — please make your own determination based on the photos provided.
