TedError Valued Member United States 242 Posts	Posted 11/25/2024 7:24 pm OK - found this one last night. Please take a look at this 1985 penny with a nice die clash on reverse and maybe remnants of clash on obverse (on Lincoln's back). You can see lincoln's beard and back well and the 'Y' from LIBERTY on the reverse. There is also a die crack. Is this a new die clash? There are 2 atypical and one typical die clash listed on mad clashes. Report this Post to the Staff

TedError Valued Member United States 242 Posts	Posted 11/25/2024 8:46 pm Just for my own coin education. What is the difference of an Atypical and Typical die clash listings on mad clashes site? This clash is much more than the listing below, so to the previous replies on this coin, why wouldn't it be shown as an Atypical diie clash? ADC-1c-1985-01 In bays 7 & 8 are unusual clash marks. Overlays suggest that it is part of Lincoln's bears and throat. The degree of rotation is about 8 degrees and the misalignment about 5%. This is not enough to constitute a MAD clash entry, but enough to substantiate its inclusion in the Atypical files. The obverse was void of any clash marks. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 11/25/2024 9:07 pm ADC-1c-1985-01 is atypical because of the 5% misalignment. IMO that one probably doesn't need to be listed either. 1985-02 is nice example of an atypical clash being a triple clash and quite strong. Atypical clashes are usually multiple clashing events or strong design transfers or both. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."
