A very nice example, beautiful coin. The clashes in the 40s are usually strong, I think what makes your coin so appealing is the high grade shows off the clash very nicely. In some cases, an effort was made to remove some of the clash by reworking the die, but this often left tool marks in its place. In the 50s, the obverse relief was changed, and the clashes were not as noticeable. In some examples of very strong clashes the obverse letters 'GEO' are visible in the date field, I'd be interested to see if this is the case in your 50 cent since it is high grade. Also is there any clashes on the obverse, if yes then pictures would be appreciated.If you're interested you could look at some of my 50 cent clash posts on this site.
