Ok I'll bite--what are you seeing?  That doesn't appear to be a die clash in the 7th bay. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Ok I'm still having trouble seeing anything of interest. Do you mean on the obverse or the reverse? Best would be to mark up one of these pics with an arrow or circle or something.

Well I guess this one is in the "to go" pile. I was just curious about this one.

Thanks coop... I just needed confirmation that someone could see what I could see. I'm not the one to pursue the dollar, but I love the art of the diversity of looking.

Would you believe that I didn't have to create these images that day. They were created a while back. (who knows when) when that subject was considered back then. The new overlays are new, but the rotation images was back a few years ago. So this has come up here before. We often forget that during a clash, these dies can rotate during that event. Thus the less than 45 degrees is a requirement for me for a rotation of the obverse/reverse rotated dies to some into affect. At the 45 degree and above rotation, I feel like they were not placed in the die properly.

They are created. They are made from an obverse and reverse with two images each. Then over layed over each other rotating them to the bay they would be set to die alignment. Obverse (normal) Reverse rotated 180 degrees flipped horizontal and over layed on the obverse image. Same for reverse rotated and flipped. I remove the our devices as they are not usually shown on a clash. (Center of the die is higher to move the metal towards the rim direction) But if they are needed, I can leave them where they are. I have almost 500 images of these on my image host the I've created through the years. (over 10.5K images on my image host of different items I use for posting.)

I find that absolutely fascinating! I had no idea you could do that.
