    Good evening!

    Just found something pretty cool today - in an unexpected place. Was looking through a bunch of 2x2 proof singles, when I ran across this 1970 S Proof Roosevelt. The die clash on both sides (I can even see a double clash on the obverse!) is so strong it stood out without a loupe:

    Whole coin (clashes are visible but the full extent isn't as apparent)

    Obverse clash (if you zoom in on the P of Pluribus, you can see the double clash)

    Reverse clash (it's not a complete profile, but it's close)

    I've checked http://www.maddieclashes.com/ for an existing listing - which doesn't exist, at least, I couldn't find a match. It appears they have suspended submissions for new clashes, so no way to send it to them for listing/verification as of today.

    Does anyone know if this one has already been recognized elsewhere?

    It's at least as cool as my 1965 SMS Roosevelt Clash - in fact, this one is much, much stronger. Never seen such clear letter transfer of PLURIBUS before, especially not on a proof.

    Feel free to share your thoughts!
    Thanks.
