Looks like you are now officially a member of the Prison Cent gang. I've yet to find my membership coin.

Nice find! Thanks, Doug.

These are tough finds but I really think a lot of these get missed. Out of the 4 ive been lucky to find 3 of those 4 I barely caught when the light hit the coin at a different angle and all but 1 were pretty strong clashes. Before flipping your coins over while searching always look at the obverse first at different angles

Doug - "Prison Cent gang" maybe I should make a Poll post to see how many members we have?

Slamn - 4 of them is amazing and especially most of them being so nice strong clashes - are any of yours listed?

Uruman - Have a great time at the coin show. Wish I was going to a coin show.

Sandy I matched 3 of the 4 to maddieclashes.com and the 4th that had no match I emailed them but never heard back...I have 3 left I traded one with a member here and I had posted them all here when I found them.

I didn't join CCF until November of 2015, and it has taken me this long just to get to know many of oddities of errors and varieties that I get to search for.

Never really had the opportunity until now to learn about the the die clashes. It was fun going back and looking up some of them.

Those 87's are really awesome & that 99' is fantastic

Thought I would paste in some of the links in case some other members (especially newbies) want to check them out.

I see what you mean about finding these and how many have probably been missed. They can be hard to spot unless you get the light hitting the coin at the right angle.

They are really cool looking - Excellent Finds.
