1 Cent Clip Errors.

I seem to have a couple of the clip errors on a few cents. Anyone collect these? Shoot me a PM. I'll have to look back in the big Canadian copper pile but I'd say up to 5 examples of this mint error.

Whats a clip error?

I have a mint set from '76 and it claims the finest specimines were picked for the set and the nickel is missing a chunk. It looks like it was clipped off. Is that a clip error?

After going through the canadian copper pile...I only found 2. I thought I had at least 4 or 5. One is in good shape but the other looks like a parking lot find. The reverse is OK but the obverse(front) is all scratched up.
