    rickmp Frequently flatulent.

    Your coin does not match the overlay.

    According to your overlay I don't see what it would be a clash of.

    @rickmp @paddyman98 Jason Cuvelier's overlay/image I posted is not an "exact" replica, it's just a representation. I thought the anomaly/image I posted was pretty close to representing the back of Lincoln's neck in "about" the right location. So what's your opinion? I got nothing here?

    actual clash events on coins will almost always be slightly off from the overlays due to the dies being out of adjustment to cause the clash to begin with, the overlays are just a reference...yours is the same as posted above..

    Yes, it is a clash, but also a very common one.

    Yes, got it. Thanks for that! Jeeezzzz, I don't recall seeing that thread. I even did a search. Yes, just like Sheila's clash. Yes, common. It's in a 2x2 with the rest of the commoners. Thanks @BooksB4Coins

    Yes, for sure a clash. And keep your eyes open for 2002-2006, lots of clashes in those years.

    Now that's a nice clash. Also known as the Prisoner Cent or Prisoner Penny die clash.

    Very nice find indeed. I only have one of these as bold but have not been able to photograph it to make it worthy of putting up here.

    I had a talk with a fellow CT'er about photo's and it makes more sense not to post them if I can't do it correctly. I have a scope but still need to get a stand to get it high enough off the table so as not to skew my photos. Eventually....

    Not a problem. I know exactly what you're talking about. I've had my scope on the edge of the table and a coin on the floor to get a good picture.
