Cool find!

 

nice

 

Wow that is very good. Thanks for sharing!

 

Great die clash, better than any I have found!

 

Nice pickup, thanks for sharing!

 

The MM looks concaved. Is that a part of die clash?

 

Behind the neck? That's die clash from the wings outer edges.

 

I think you're seeing an optical illusion. I don't see it on this coin, but there are some coin pictures on here where it looks like most of the letters are concave and I have to look away and look at a different part of the coin to see them convex.

Edit: Oh, I see what you mean now. It looks like the P is inside a bowl in the second picture.

 

No, the mint mark under the neck.

 

His 2nd, 3rd and 4th pictures looks like the mint mark "P" is in a hold (concave depression).

 

I mean hole.....sorry

 

That is not a part of the clash, but part of the manufacturing process. The MintMark was a second punch that was applied to the die separately. As it was punched in, sometimes it would distort the area just around the mintmark. You see it on many coins.

 

Very good find.

 

Thanks for that.

 

Nice find, I hope to find something cool like that on a JFK. I still have about 100 bucks of them to go through.

 

Don't feel bad if you don't. I've gone through probably 20 boxes before finding this one.
