Welcome to the forum.
My guess is that the coin was removed from a bezel or encasement of some kind, and will not receive a grade, but I hope I am wrong.
Good luck with your submission.
Tks again, I didn’t see much on net about that bezel/encasement removal damage. I’ll keep looking. I’m guessing you’re saying it’s broken off where it got caught and stripped off some of the nickel edge? If so I’m not sure about that but could be it. The nickel is thin as if it was small and pressed outward. If it got caught or was severed by an encasement of some kind the nickel throughout would be regular thickness at best wouldn’t it? What is bazel or encasement damage?

Me too! I’ll have to look up what that means. Tks for posting. I’m looking stuff up as I get input too. Yeah it would be sad not to get a rating. Maybe they’ll not charge me then 😂😂

Not as many as in ‘80, and nowhere near as many as in ‘79, but some, and that’s all you need. Actually, the fact that they struck them for collectors only in ‘81 could have encouraged a little carelessness with unused or “found” planchets, like under some machine.
Tks for the info, I looked it up for the sba print number at the p mint in 1981 after you posted this. From the page I got, which showed a chart, it said 3 million in 81 and made for sets. Like you stated there were more productive years. Which makes the odds of it happening in 81 at P more interesting. Tks for the posting again.

Yes, and the reason I’m thinking SBA is because I have seen halves struck on a quarter planchet before and this one has more “stuff” remaining on it than those.
Okay Tks, I see what your saying. A quarter wouldn’t have squished out as close to the rim as an sba. This has more lettering remaining than a quarter squished would have. I suspect the sba is larger than a quarter but smaller than a Kennedy then. I was just looking them up and sba replaced the Eisenhower dollar by carter. And the P mint did some in 81.

Have you seen it off yet? Handle with gloves, one sold on Heritage for over $800 😅
Tks again, I checked out heritage and registered. Interesting site. And just in case you didn’t see earlier I sent it off to ngc already.

Keep us informed on this one, Kelly. This might be an SBA dollar planchet rather than a quarter.
Will do! I’m learning new stuff so Tks for your post. I’ll have to look up the sba info. That’s a Susan B. Anthony right?

Sweet! Tks. I sent it in. It should have gotten there Saturday. But may take a bit to actually open. I didn’t have it too long or bang it around. Mainly it got put in a jar with others then going back through I discovered it. I got some gloves from family and I’ve tried to remember to put them on. Tks for input, It’s haphazard and careless not too I’m realizing, and your advice is galvanizing the necessity of them for me. Some metal word play there :).

Thanks! It crossed my mind. I’ll have to weigh it. I bought a digital scale for measuring tea and for some reason it’s gone mad broke. It is very thin, the nickel part. I guess if it was quarter it got pressed thin by die. It’s on both sides. Tks again for reply and the specs!

A few months into coins. Mainly walking liberties, but have gotten into Kennedy’s. I need 4 more to finish my 64 - 99 collection. In the process I’ve got a lot of Kennedy’s. Which got me into coin roll hunting. I’ve found a lot with errors. One of them looks to be a stock error or planchet error of some sort. It’s the first I sent in for grading. It should be in the mail there by now. I was wondering if anyone knows what kind of error it is? Price estimate if I sell? If you can tell the grade would be neat to guesstimate. It’s fun. Sorry for long thread but introducing myself as well. The nickel falls short of the copper which sticks out a tiny bit. The coin as a whole is a hair smaller in diameter to other healthy Kennedys. This is a 1981 p Kennedy half dollar. The letters are cut off where the nickel ends. The one pic of the rims is the error coin under a healthy Kennedy.
Planchet error? 1st coin sent in 1981 p Kennedy

Thanks for the post and welcome! Yeah there is something going on with it. Hopefully the issue will get discovered. Its fun figuring it out! I appreciate the info and help. Now I know what a bezel is and encasements and what damage they can cause! The coin is flattened from the center out. The Nickel part and not just on edges, however the edge of the nickel is missing or stops. So it could have been cut off in a number of ways. Stripped at end of the copper like rubber off a wire? I'll keep ya'll informed, it'll be neat to see, maybe it has multiple issues HAHA!
