<p>[QUOTE=&quot;huntsman53, post: 343585, member: 1242&quot;]ldhair,</p><p><br /></p><p>It does not appear to be a typical Die Clash and IMHO, it is a Counter Die Clash! In other words, the Obverse details (in this case, the Eagle) was Clashed on to a Reverse Die and the details were transferred back to the Obverse Die when the Obverse and Reverse Dies slammed into each other again during the minting process and with no planchet in the Striking Chamber. Also, it appears that one or the other Dies were misaligned when the original Die Clash occurred. The severely Clashed Reverse Die may or may not have been replaced with another Reverse Die before the minting of the coin. However, there is no way of knowing since the Reverse of the coin is not pictured in the Auction.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
