MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1275 Posts	Posted Today 14H 26M ago Found locally today Nice clash visible on the reverse in the right field, between the branches on the left, and across the blade: Edit: The location on the blade doesn't make sense, must be a die crack Edited by MintedNotPrinted Today 14H 22M ago Report this Post to the Staff

MrPink2018 Pillar of the Community United States 2516 Posts	Posted Today 12H 31M ago that is a nice clash. nice coin altogether. I'm supposing you scored that at a local coin shop?... Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8850 Posts	Posted Today 8H 2M ago Very nice find! In a very similar location to the listed coin. Your coin may have come from a die that had multiple clashing incidents and what you see at the blade may be from a rotated/shifted die clash. Maybe from the base of the bust or area under the chin. Regardless, cool find. MDC link. https://www.maddieclashes.com/adc-10c-1943-01/ -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1275 Posts	Posted Today 6H 56M ago MrPink, indeed, LCS makecents, appreciated, I suppose it could be the profile if shifted down and to the left. Thank you both! Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6630 Posts	Posted Today 1H 29M ago I can see a bit of Liberty's profile in the left live branches as well. Any remnants on the obverse? Overall a neat clash and a nice find. =) That line appears to be some kind of die gouge. Given the location, I believe it might be consistent with a feeder finger scrape for the machinery of the WWII era. Report this Post to the Staff
MintedNotPrinted Pillar of the Community United States 1275 Posts	Posted Today 27M ago Srs77, Brandmeister, thank you! No obvious signs on the obverse. The designer's initials are a tad deformed perhaps, but through the toning with my scope, I didn't deem it worth a closeup I'll have to look into the fingers theory, that would be a very neat compound error!
