Re: Mint clipped dime?
Nice. The three things I see pointing to it being authentic:
1) Flattened rim opposite the clip (Blakesly effect)
2) Sheared appearance of the edge inside the clip, consistent with being punched from a sheet of metal, rather than being cut or ground after minting
3) Rim near the clip dips or flows into the clip area.
