Do you need a microscope to see tiny blobs?

These look like plating bubbles so far.

I see a die clash in bays 3 and 4 and the top left corner of the roof of the memorial.

IMO your cent is "lightly" clashed...whereas some cents have a very strong (harder) clashed, like a prison cent. Also older classic series coins pull a higher premium.

This is a nice unabraded clash. No die polishing to obscure any clashing.

The clash from the back of the neck in bay 3&4 is pretty strong but I'm not seeing any corresponding clash on the obverse, so the obverse die must have been changed out.

Any chance you can get a closeup of the statue on the reverse and the left side of column #3.

While I don't think I have a 1989 clashed cent I have many clashes.

Here's a link to Maddieclashes.com if you're not familiar with it. Lots of info and they describe the differences between "Typical" and "Atypical" clashes.
Happy Hunting.

FYI- "Counter-clashes" are rare and valuable clashes. Check out the ones for 1983
https://www.maddieclashes.com/type-i-counterclash/

Or ... the "Mule" Die clashes (in the Flying Eagle series, the 1864 2 cent, and the 1999 Lincoln Cent)
