I just picked this one from the bay. There are only a handful of tilted die clashes in the wheat series. I have picked a few and keep my eyes peeled for the other listed ones but this one was a surprise and seems to be the earliest one yet.
The base of the bust is clashed into Pluribus on the reverse and at least the I from Pluribus is clashed into the base of the bust on the obverse ( an arrow points to it in the third pic)

Nice pick
And a beautiful coin to boot.

Just curious if you were able to spot this from the (usually crappy) ebay seller's photo's or was it discovered after it arrived?

Rest in Peace

Thanks Moxking !
Harry213 , this particular seller actually has decent picks so I knew it before buying and luckily the lighting was at a good angle to show the clash.

Good eyes for catching that regardless. I have become interested in die clashes of late, and this is exciting to me.
