Thanks! As far as I can tell, the clash marks are just on the reverse. Why would that be?

Found this on the interwebs.

Die clash marks might be on both sides or they might be on only one side.

If two dies come together during a die clash, one die might be damaged beyond use or it might be pulled out and replaced so that the die that is most damaged can be re-polished for later use.

It is not at all unusual to find stronger clash marks on one side of the coin and weaker or no clash marks on the other.

Outstanding die clash ... and it appears you answered your own question about why one side only.

Thanks for sharing.

That is a nice clash! Here are a couple pics of mine that I found a couple years ago. This is by far the strongest clash that I have found. It also affects both sides. Just curious, what year and mint is yours?

Do you want to see the strongest die clash ever found? It's a nickel, its not mine, but it is impressive:
