Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/17/2006 02:54 am hey everyone I pulled this coin out of a bank roll a couple of months ago.i noticed the weird imprints/raised areas and saw that the reverse had been printed on the obverse! I have taken this coin to many different shows and dealers, and they all have said that I need to get this coin slabbed for the clash error ASAP. Does anyone know anyhting about this? thanks a lot. By the way I had to clean it in order to remove the grunge and see the weird features :( Edited by Metalman 05/17/2006 03:03 am Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 05/20/2006 09:34 am Absolutely, positively, no question a post-mint damage "squeeze job" and would be a complete waste of time to try slabbing it. Clashes affect the field of the coin. Squeeze jobs affect the raised relief of the coin. This is because a true clash involves the dies, on which the fields are the highest points. Squeeze jobs involve coins, on which the design is the highest point. It's impossible to accurately copy the effects of a clash using coins because the relief is in negative on dies...take another look at the image, I think you'll see what I'm referring to.
