Issue Summary

The label identifies double curved clips, but the visible edge areas where the clips would be expected appear substantially covered by the holder prongs.

Expected vs. Actual

Expected
The holder should allow the stated mint error feature to be viewed clearly.
Actual
Holder prongs obscure much of the edge area, limiting visual confirmation of the double curved clips from the presented side.

Attribution

Correct Attribution
Saudi Arabia AH1397 (1976) 10H Mint Error - Double Curved Clips
Incorrect Attribution (as labeled)
Saudi Arab AH1397(1976) 10H Mint Error MS 62 Double Curved Clips

Impact

Obscured visibility reduces presentation quality and makes the stated error harder to verify visually.

Notes

The attribution itself is not challenged here; the issue is the holder configuration relative to the stated error.
