Thad:
Look at the obverse design, then flip the coin, remember where some of the images are located, they will be in the same place on the reverse.
Same goes for the reverse -- clashed with an obverse.

no, like I said it is more common to find clashing on a 3cn than it is not to find clashing on one

Yep BadThad, a clash is worse than a hole. You just better send it to me and I will give you $10 for your troubles  Seriously though, a clash mark occurs when the two dies strike each other without a planchet between them creating an opposite side "ghost" image. Clashes are common on 3CNs and do not negatively affect the value. Nice 3CN btw  Edited by biokemist6

Very nice coin, strongly double clashed. (On the obv just to the left of the forehead you can clearly see two clash mark impressions, and on the reverse if you look at the clash of Liberty's profile you can see two noses and two chins.) It also shows strong Longacre doubling on the U and the last A of America. A die crack from the rim - ICA- Liberty's neck/ And the die was created from a broken hub. Note the open top of the D in UNITED. It is open because the top of the letter was broken off on the hub.
Lots of interesting things going on on this coin. I've have paid the $105 for it.

Thanks guys. If any of you'd like, I can post the high res photos so you can really get a look at it.
Funny, I didn't notice all those features, but now I clearly see the reverse clash of her profile....that's really, really cool.

Nice one I wish I knew that you were looking for one. I posted a thread about the clashing on my 1865 on the 16th. Nice coin...apparently the clashing is common, darn it!  https://goccf.com/t/18425 |

Ya I think so, I thought it was something more special than it is, as Prethen shows, I haven't seen a bad one yet.  So I have put it into a 95% VF or Better Type set I am planning on selling once I get 5 more coins. Edited by Nelrak
