jimmie81 Valued Member United States 139 Posts	Posted 08/26/2014 10:31 pm Die clash is when the obverse and reverse dies smash togather without a coin in it, and leaves the imprint of the reverse on the obverse,when the next coin comes in to the die and is stamped it leaves the image of the reverse on the obverse and a image of the obverse on the reverse side.hope this helps hard for me to explain hopefully someone else can chim in thats better with words than I am sorry Report this Post to the Staff
