shathe Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 06/03/2021 12:03 am not sure what this is called, but it seems like a very light strike followed by a normal strike on the same planchet. the reverse design does appear on the obverse though, but I don't think this is a die clash. the details from the reverse seem to follow the contours of the obverse design. very hard to take pictures of. there is an 'M' on the nose area, an oak leaf and another artifact on the neck, and many letters on the rim of the neck. I can only reliably make out an 'A'... Report this Post to the Staff

shathe Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 06/03/2021 10:26 pm oh, ok. I can kind of see it now. I guess there is a significant offset to the NW of the obverse, although the reverse has a centered clash. guess I still have to do a bit of research on how clashes occur. are these considered to be rare? I have three now, in probably less than 4 months of looking... Report this Post to the Staff
