Hello! Happy New Year  Found this a couple days ago. Finally decided it is a Die Clash Can't find any other clash marks on the obverse, and, only a couple tiny remnants on the reverse. (DieClash.com is currently down.)    |

Not sure how we are arriving at a die clash diagnosis here.
What design on the reverse is it corresponding to?
It can't be a counterclash either since that requires a double clash.
This is some obscure form of doubling I've seen before but can't recall at the moment.

What do you think? Possible? Possible yes - but it would be useful to see an overlay image with the area in question highlighted. Coop had a bunch of these before he stopped participating. Does anyone still have one for a Jefferson nickel? Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.artEdited by nickelsearcher

Thank you, -makecents-
I see that MAD is working again, too.
I will inspect the coin again to see if I can find any other clashes. I imagine that depending upon its placement, anything, regardless of how seemingly insignificant, could help verify the possibility or totally disprove it.
Thank You!!

Certainly possible but the clash would have to be off center.

Certainly lookeds like and matches a die clash.
IMHO, Since only this part of the design is affected, it's likely that one of the dies were tilted.
Being tilted could also account for the misalignment. (It isn't very much out of alignment.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

I have been looking, but can't find any other clashes - I do start seeing "things" by looking to hard, though  That said, I'm sticking with die clash. It is the right shape and size - just a little out of place. Thank You, Everyone! |

I don't mean to be critical, but apart from the first zoomed picture, there is way too much glare to make out any details. You need a much softer light on the fields to see weaker clashes because the features are so faint. Sometimes it also helps to tilt the coin just a tiny bit, or to have the light coming in parallel to the coin face instead of directly overhead.
I do see a bit of something in the usual position at the ponytail knot, and also between the ponytail and neck. I can't see anything on the reverse because it's too washed out with glare.
