Can someone put an example of a full blown die clash on here. I think this might be a mild die clash but need an example to see if they line up. It looks like part of the back and and then the collar going to Lincoln. I couldnt capture the collar well. EDIT: forgot to put picture in  .  Edited by Cud Wild

I somewhat agree with dumprat. Do you see any indication of a die clash on the obverse?

There doesn't need to be clash marks on both sides for there to be clash marks on one side. Sometimes the clash would cause one of the dies to break, so they would replace the one die.
What you have is a die clash. I am not sure why you doubted that. They are common.

May not be worth a lot but it is a keeper in my eyes. Good reference coin.

It is tilted about 10 degrees and it is a 1982 small date. Sad to say this is the strongest die clash I found to date. I want to find a strong one like the double strike but doubt thats going to happen. All I can do is try.

 I don't save the ones inside the bays unless they show the y on LIBERTY or the outline of the head below the bottom of the memorial. The ones one bay 3 and 8&9 are common. |

Hi, Here's one where the evidence of a die clash are on the obverse. The reverse shows very heavy die polishing lines (die abeasion) Thanks, Bill  |

Generally a clash has to be quite obvious (like Bill's coin) to have any value at all above that of a normal coin for the date and grade. When a clash has to be pointed out to a layman so they get where it is, there's no WOW factor, thus they have no real value.
Cents with a diagonal line inside the memorial bays are exceedingly common.
Cents that show all the bays around Lincoln's portrait on the obverse are quite scarce.
See the difference? Example 1 - common coin. Example 2 - scarce with some value.

About two weeks ago I posted a nice clashed dies dime, dated 2000, that I received in change... It may even be a multi-clash that has that WOW factor...

Or it could be a single clash that bounced and affted multiple areas during that one clash.
