A nice example of Clashed Dies. Submitted by Don Barkheimer II of TX 02/08/2006. 
 Die Clashes are the result of a failure of a feeder system to deposit a planchet between the dies during a press cycle. When this occurs, the dies clash or smash into each other imparting some of one or both die's designs into the opposing die to a greater or lesser degree. It is possible for dies to clash and only one die be affected with clash marks.

 Lets not let this thread get out of hand.  Nice clashes. I always look for them but can never find any.

CoinHuntingDrew, I really don't use anything special. I use a D-70 or D-100 (antiques by today's standards) and I shoot through a Swift Stereo Eighty from the late 1970s. All antique junk! LOL. I shoot my macros through my D-100 mounted on a copy stand. I stack +2 and a +4 enlargement filters on the standard 28-80 mm lens that came with the camera for macros. I paid $50.10 for one of my scopes (cost me 10c to repair it as it was not working when purchased needing a washer) and I paid about $600 for my first one that I now keep as a back-up to take to shows. I paid $100 for the D-100 ($500 more than I paid for the D-70 in 2006). There is better equipment out there and lots of folks that shoot better images than I do but what I have is good enough for me. Still, I may have to bite the bullet and spend some money as I get so many woodpeckers (my favorites as I get all four species native to Michigan and they are beautiful) and all kind of other birds outside my sliding glass door in the kitchen that I'd like to get some good shots. Especially of the pesky Hawk that keeps ripping me off for Doves. I saw a Robin today big enough to eat!

Ok guys (and maybe some gals) I guess you can figure out I set this all up for what was to follow. So now lets get clean. How about a little "mud" on your face or in your eye?

Or with this planchet flaw who could ask for friends:
