I posted a Dime some months ago that came back as a Collar Clash and I'm wondering if you think this is that as well. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

MakesNoCentsToMe Valued Member United States 299 Posts	Posted 06/11/2022 6:37 pm Thanks Jimmy. Whilst I look at that Dime again a little closer it actually had some reeding on the edge that this one cent doesn't. Thanks for the confirmation. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 98548 Posts	Posted 06/11/2022 7:00 pm You won't really see a collar clash on a non-reeded coin like quarters or dimes. The collar on those coins resulted from a mis-aligned die (like your cent here) but the die hits the collar that has the reeds on it are to form the reeds on the coin - but when the die hits it, the die takes on the impression of the reeds as well and then are struck onto the top of the coin.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/12/2022 04:43 am I see a minor MAD on the obv and a nasty fingerprint on the rev and maybe remanence of a die clash by the date. It is a spender IMHO. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
