Years ago I bought a type 2 1979s proof dime out of my local dealer's junk box for $1. Years later I realized it had a very strong die clash, clearly visible to the naked eye. Leaves coming out of his head and full upside down head outline on the back. Has anyone here ever heard of one of these? About how much is something like this worth? Thank you!

Can you get pictures of your coin? I would love to see it.

I will see if I have pictures. It is locked away off site. The next time I am there I will get pictures if I can't find them on my hard drive. I believe I have some pictures of this somewhere. One way or the other I will get pictures up. Might be today. Might be a few weeks. Thanks for your patience!

Nice find.
A strong die clash on both sides.
Don't know how much of a premium it would
bring though. Perhaps somebody else can help.

Very nice strong Die clash! As for premium, I don't have a straight answer for you, but someone else might. Nice find!

Great find! Errors like this on Proof coin are pretty scarce, so the premium would be high.

Holy smokes. I'd be contacting maddieclashes.com w/the quickness.

Hope Mike, Jason or BJ have their ears on.
