Vrsmulator7 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 02:35 am This cent displays what appears at first glance to be clashed dies: however, the surviving details on the OBV and REV are of a pattern not seen on the cent, nor any other coins in the range of dates 1862, 1863, 1864, 1865, 1866. The REV only shows a sharp raised ridge at about 7:00, so I'm providing the OBV only. I need help with this one - I'm stumped! Report this Post to the Staff

Pistareen Valued Member United States 309 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 07:04 am Might this 1864 bronze cent be struck over a Civil War Token? If you have enough of the under type details see if it matches with any known patriotic or store card, a large task but neat if you find a match. Report this Post to the Staff
RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1021 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 09:22 am I see a normal clashed die. This date has some incredible clashed dies out there, and to me, this appears to be a normal clash. Report this Post to the Staff
Vrsmulator7 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 10:27 am Thanks for the help guys! Yep, it's a clashed die of the 'C' in 'CENT' with the details of the wreath beneath it. At 7:00 on the REV I can see the Clash of the Indians nose. Report this Post to the Staff
Vrsmulator7 New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 04/26/2016 10:32 am Sorry, one more question about this coin, and I can put it to rest: Is it typical for this clash to have a weak strike at the top half of the oak wreath; and, a similar question about the tips of the Indian's feathers? If not, I'm inclined to call this EF to AU... Report this Post to the Staff
