Ive just come across an olympic 50p (cycling) which has a clipped planchet.

Ive read that its pretty rare to find a clipped coin, so im guessing being an olympic one it could be worth something?

Anyone clued up on things like this?

I read earlier that 70% of the total Olympics coins have been hoarded. That's about 10 million pounds worth
