[QUOTE="Ed Sims, post: 1851072, member: 59688"]VAMworld does not mention any clashed dies with these diagnostics yet they do picture several die gouges on many varieties with no mention of them being the result of a clashed die. Here's a clearer picture of the reverse which shows the die gouge below DOLLAR and to the right of the leaves. The die gouge in the rays above the O in Dollar and the bright white line extending up from the eagle's shoulder is another die gouge. It can't be from a clashed die as it is on the opposite end of the coin from the rays of the tiara and there isn't anything on the obverse in that location which could have caused this. The two obverse close-ups show the die crack at the bottom of Liberty's neck and the second one shows the raised dot between the T of TRVST and the rim.
