Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 01/12/2021 5:07 pm Found while roll hunting - I've never seen a Die Clash like this before - looks like the dies clashed up to 3 times before striking this cent on the obverse and some on the reverse. Any thoughts on this will be appreciated to know how exactly this happened. Hope the pics are good enough, it was kind of hard to get the detail because of the reflection off of the cent.

Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 01/12/2021 5:39 pm Very very cool clash, I believe this is called a "chatter clash": "A chatter clash is defined by the presence of multiple sets of closely-spaced clash marks. They are generated when a pair of dies collides multiple times, with slight lateral movement of the hammer die between each strike. Multiple sets of very light clash marks can also be produced by die bounce. A loose, jittery die can collide with its counterpart and vibrate during the impact, producing two or more sets of clash marks" http://www.error-ref.com/chatter-clash/ Edited by Adam_E 01/12/2021 5:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2954 Posts	Posted 01/12/2021 6:34 pm To me, this is a solid keeper, and beginning to look like a major mint error, and is very likely to bring some sort of premium value in the error community, though not sure how much. Report this Post to the Staff
