Started going through my Ike hoard in the last couple of days. Found 7 "talon heads" this morning. Here are a few of the pics (these things are hard to photo, had NO luck with my usb).



Two talons showing!

It maybe an olive leaf or feathers?

The example I posted is an overlay. Two images edited to show the position the dies would be in, if it were a die clash. Most of the time just the outline of the devices transfer to the opposite die. Not the deeper designs. But they help to identify what would transfer during a clash.

So Coop-if the clash is in fact the olive leaf or feather (and it may well be) is that still labeled a "Talon Head"? The reference pics I am looking at suggest yes, but hey, I am still learning.
