I was reading a post in the Canadian forum and it was mentioned that the coin had a " Die Clash ". Can someone explain what that is? I looked in the glossary and it did not mention it.

Try looking under clashed dies. Same thing.

A die clash is a type of variety / mint error, caused by two dies smashing together without a blank in between them. Evidenced by parts of the obverse design appearing mirrored on the reverse, and/or vice versa.

Thanks again Sap! By the way, The ancient coin that you had said was quite valuable, what kind of value are we talking on that? I don't plan on selling, but I would like to know if I should go out and by a safe!
