    I have a few of these but not BU's. Hard to photograph though. Nice find!

    Plenty of polish lines where they tried to obliterate the clash mark(s).

    Are those feeder finger lines on the obverse on both sides of Lincoln's profile? Reason I ask is I recently found a dime with lines like that.

    No, they are die polish marks.

    I believe those are polish lines the mint employee caused when trying to remove the clash.

    Ok so maybe I should take a closer look at my dime to see if it's a clash. Thanks for the insight.

    Check out this site. It gives overlays of where a clash is likely to show up. (assuming the dies are properly aligned.)
