Now being that it's a 1983, if it were to weigh 3.11 g you would have a coin that PCGS would love to slab for you!

The mad clash issue is a totally different thought than a die clash.


How so Coop? It's my understanding that they are one in the same except for the fact that a MAD clash is the result of a slight horizontal or vertical deviance to the hammer die during the empty chamber strike.

It's a strong rotated die clash. Rotations of 30 degrees or less are not uncommon among Lincoln cents. This would seem to fall at the upper end of that range. Most of the time you'll find the coin to have been struck with the dies in the same rotated position as well. Not always, though. Once a rotated clash is equal to or greater than 45 degrees, then you've got yourself a rarity.

These are what I think of when I hear the term 'Mad Die Clash'.
