@DE, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree that we need to see overall pics of both sides of the coin to help you understand what you have there with this cent. Thx.

Very nice clash !
A clash of the wheat stem to the obverse is quite unusual. I'm still looking for my first.

Here is an overlay of a normal clash:    First time I've noticed a clash mark in that area. Very nice find and a keeper. Not a common clash. |

Thanks Coop,It's cool looking but its stamped in to the coin not raised. Die clashes are raised up on the coin right.

No that is a normal die clash. But it is unusual, because most of the rim the clashes happen more in the central areas. Like I said, it is the first one I seen there before.

It would not be worth grading. The grading cost would be more than the coin would be worth. It is a die clash, not need to have to pay extra for an ID of it.

Die clashes are actually incuse on the coin. Think about it, the die is incuse so when it clashes against the other die it creates a raised area on the other die. Then when that damaged die strike a planchet the raised area on the die creates an incuse image on the coin.
