Had these in my pocket today to show a buddy my interesting finds at lunch today, so thought I'd throw them on the office scanner/copier and see how they turned out. They didn't turn out great but I think you can get the point.

The Jefferson has a die clash, you can see the bust outlined on the reverse and a small bit of Monticello to the right of the bust on the Obverse.

The Washington has a small Cud at 1-2 o'clock. Also nothing spectacular but it was my first Cud so of course I kept him.

Always nice to find a Cud or a clash!

Is the "clash" raised on the nickel? Or is it a slight depression?

It could be caused by an old die rather than a clash...an impression from one die is transferred to the opposite die over time. Transferred *through* the coins that are being struck.

Of course it is impossible to say from the scan.

The clash lines are actually pretty well defined, and are impressed. I'm pretty certain it's a clash.

Cool...

I don't know why I asked if they were raised, because in condition I described they aren't raised.

Not bad for a lunchtime find.
