How common is this? I found this coin in some old boxes of stuff I'm going through and the VAM thing now has me looking over every coin w/a fine tooth comb! It "appears" to have the obverse shield horizontal lines showing behind the "H" on the reverse. There are some other marks but my lousy camera work can't show'em!

That is a neat clash but unfortunately clashes were a common occurrence during those times. I couldn't see this being a huge premium unless it was clashed with another denomination. One of my favorite clash that I have found is shown here.

For a find in an old box of stuff, I'd say it's pretty neat.

Half Dimes are almost always clashed. The premium for this series is finding one that is NOT clashed.
