This is a 1983 die clash and a small cud (I think).

yes, tiny cud.

and the other, may (emphasis MAY) be a planchet flaw.

 

I hope these are better photos. I think in these photos, you can see the clash.
Thanks

 

The Clash was clearer in the first pics. Nice find!
I have a growing page of Clashes and Clash overlays here:

There's a 1985 Clash overlay that shows what is what on your coin...(I'll make a copy below.)

 

That is so neat, these overlays explain alot of mysteries...

 

yup, now I see it.

 

They do exaplin a lot, I just wish they were easier to create...

 

Is there any extra value in these??

 

Depends on the severity. Maybe .50¢ to $2, unless it is very dramatic. I have seen a dramatic one go for $25.

 

Hi,

I'm not buying the CUD aspect of this coin. Die clash, yes....CUD, i doubt it.

The shank of the die breaks when a CUD is involved. The shank of the die includes the surface of the coin. Since this anomaly is confined outside a distinct rim on the coin, it is more likely something that occurred because of a slight chip in the collar, if that. It could also simple be a spot where a little metal was forced during the strike.

Anyway, the face of the die is not effected so it likely is not a CUD.

Thanks,
Bill
