The Kennedy half dollar actually has two 'clips', the larger one very easy to see, the second, at the 6 in the date and second S in STATES, harder to spot. The angle pic, of the coin resting on the nickels, captures it.

The PMD Indian Cent, my best guess, was done by a dental student. Practicing filling cavities(?) Best I can come up with anyway.

A 'clipped' planchet error coin from Great Britain. 

Notice that the coin lacks the so-called Blakesly effect.

This was a well made coin, was struck properly, and was made from a high quality planchet. (Good alloying, proper annealing, etc.)

The metal easily filled out the die opposite the missing metal, so there was no Blakesly effect.
