I'm seeing a lot of clashes lately. This one is more unusual than the rest. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd bays have the normal clash of Abe's back and collar. But there is also what appears to be a flipped clash too.

Never seen a clash like this one.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks.

It looks a bit tilted to me but I do see part of the Y in bay #1.

Hmmm ... Neat.
I wonder if the anomaly in bay #1 is a counter clash?

My first stop was MadDieClashes. No clash like this for 1998 or any other year, or any other coin.
Agree with a tilted strike HI. Also, the die looks rotated a few degrees. The ceiling of the memorial gets progressively wider from left to right.

IDK? Really odd to find a coin that doesn't fit anywhere.

Thanks silviosi. I didn't do the math.

interesting ideas on this one.

Column #2 has an area near the top left and right side of the base that doesn't match the normal design for a clash in this area. It seems like this anomaly might mirror (reversed) some design elements which is why I was suggesting a counterclash.

It will be interesting to see a final determination.
