Your Half Dime has very strong obv and rev die clashes. It is not a listed variety like a doubled die or overdate but it would probably have a modest premium due to the strength of the clashes. I have to admit that seeing the date on the reverse is pretty cool  |

Thanks! I was pretty sure there was a name for it... I was planning on sending this coin to PCGS- Do you know if they detract for that or if they mention it if you do the variety thing?

Yup, that's a thing and IMHO your clashes are very interesting. I agree with biokemist, the date clash has the cool factor going for it.  |

Clashing is something that can happen to any die pair at any time, so it doesn't by itself define a variety. It might be included as a subvariety stage, the "a" version unclashed and the "b" version clashed - but that's as far as it would go. Nice coin; I have the impression of just a very little bit of circulation. Certainly no worse than AU55 and $100-ish in a PCGS slab. |

Amazing die clash. Could you take it out of the 2x2, photograph it again, and re-post? I sure would like a good look at it, please.

Very interesting, one doesn't usually see a complete date in a clash, this is very cool!
