-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 9064 Posts	Posted 09/03/2026 5:55 pm Very nice clashed coin! There are a couple of listings on Mad Die Clashes but nothing that matches. Yours would appear to have a slightly counterclockwise rotation to the clash. If they start taking submissions again, you can probably get yours listed. Here are links to the listed coins for 1866 and side by sides of yours and Mad Die Clashes overlay.

SomeGoodCents Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 09/03/2026 7:00 pm Can't get Mad Die Clashes site to open. Did an ebay search for " Three Cent Nickel Die Clash" found several extremely similar Raw and a few Slabbed. Almost certain its a Die Clash, thinking it adds about $20 to value? Still a little uncertain with Reverse lower Ribbons they're nearly gone, is this normal wear? Report this Post to the Staff

Quote: Still a little uncertain with Reverse lower Ribbons they're nearly gone, is this normal wear? Mostly from over polishing because of the clash, the mint worker abraded most of the ribbon out. As for what it may add, I don't know but there are those that love clashes and will pay more. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
