Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 06/23/2023 05:56 am @pris, almost always die clashes affect the high points of the dies, which generally correspond to the fields of the coin rather than the details (like the portrait). Therefore the typical clash on these cents looks like vertical bands in front of and behind Abe's head—thus the moniker "prisoner cent". With this coin, you are seeing damage on Abe's ear and neck.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95443 Posts	Posted 06/23/2023 07:43 am This appears to be damage. Some sort of contact hits. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19142 Posts	Posted 06/23/2023 07:49 am Agree, post-strike damage. And yes, appears to be Machine Doubling, or possibly Die Deterioration Doubling on the date. Report this Post to the Staff
