  Planchet errors - Coin Errors and Goofs from Coin World
Planchet scrap is generally larger than a fragment, and usually has straight or curved edges as a result of the blanking process.
The area of the rim 180 degrees opposite the "clip" is weak or non-existent since the rim-making process in the upset mill is negated by the "clip." The lack of pressure in the upset mill at the clip results in improper formation of the rim on the opposite side.
New in U.S. coinage, unplated planchets became possible in 1982 with the introduction of the copper-plated zinc cent (and briefly in 1943 with the zinc-coated steel cents).

 Wrong Planchet Errors Still Collector Interest
The "wrong planchet" error frequently occurs when a tote bin fails to be emptied all the way and a planchet remains stuck in a corner or in the groove of a tote bin door.
If the bin is then used to transport planchets for a larger diameter blank or planchet, the wayward blanks, still retained in the bin may be transported to a coining operation of another denomination and struck with that denomination's mark.
Because this error type frequently involves a planchet thinner than what is intended for the dies striking it, the result is often a weak strike especially when involving planchet denominations much thinner than the dies striking it.

 Planchet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A planchet is a round metal disk that is ready to be struck as a coin.
In ancient times, the flan was heated before striking because the metal that the coin dies were made out of was not as hard as dies today, and the dies would have worn faster and broken sooner had the flan not been heated to a high temperature to soften it.
Because of this, the planchet no longer needs to be heated immediately before striking, although it is annealed by heating and quick cooling which softens the coin.

 Incomplete Planchets (
It occurs because when the planchet goes through the upset mill, there is not enough pressure opposite the clip to force the metal up to form a rim.
An outside corner clip occurs when a planchet is punched from the corner at the end of the planchet strip.
When a planchet is initially punched, the punch will cut the planchet partially through, and then because of less resistance, will "tear" the planchet the rest of the way.
