A strong clashing evident here on both obverse and reverse. The leaf stamped in Washingtons hair on obverse and the E in WE poking out on reverse are notable. Some rotation is evident as well as this is not a spitting eagle but maybe more of a drooling eagle :)

Nice. Also looks like a bit of collar clash on the obverse.

Thanks Levelsofmadnes and John1!

I think you're right about that collar clash. I wonder if the clashes are related.

Looks like one of the dies rotated a bit to show the 'E' from the Motto on the obverse clash.

First time I've seen several of these clashed devices on the quarter.
On this die I figured out 8 degree rotation for this coin is pretty close. So here is how they look side by side:

Here is the overlay for the individual sides:

Thanks for posting this.

So how do I rotate the images on these? You rotate the overlay coin and figure out: Does this match what I see. If not, slide it off, and rotate another image overlay a bit more/less. Sound complex, but easy if you know what you are trying to achieve.
