Looks like it could be the arrows - what SNOW would this be Also, what is the Snow site, so I can look this up? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6448 Posts	Posted 12/17/2025 4:03 pm That is a really interesting site, although the organization is an acquired taste. Much of it has that mid-1990s Internet vibe. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinForMe Pillar of the Community United States 2113 Posts	Posted 12/17/2025 4:05 pm I don't see any die clash of the Obverse by 'OF.. Something is there, but not from a die clash, IMHO... Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94586 Posts	Posted 12/17/2025 5:31 pm Well you are entitled to your opinion (and you may be correct too) After seeing Brand's overlay, I'm not too certain Collecting since 1972.

RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1018 Posts	Posted 12/17/2025 5:45 pm There won't be a Snow number associated with a normal clash. Off center die clashes are assigned snow numbers though. Report this Post to the Staff
