<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 308687, member: 8247&quot;]Not having heard that term before &quot;Collar Clash&quot;, I decided to google it.&nbsp; The most common definition I found was </p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Occasionally, the die shifts slightly out of position and, instead of fully striking the planchet, it partially strikes the collar. As with a die clash, the design of the collar, whether smooth or reeded, is transferred to the die. This, in turn, is transferred to the coins struck by the die. Most often, only the reeded collar clashed coins are of collector interest, but again, only if there is significant design transfer.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Doing the thought experiment in my head, that seems to be a very good explanation for what we see in OP&#039;s coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, I&#039;m guessing since I have never heard the term before and it doesn&#039;t appear in the Non-Error coin collecting books (such as the redbook) that there isn&#039;t much demand or value for this type of error.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now that I have a term for it, I may start keeping the ones that I find.&nbsp; I still have one at home that I haven&#039;t tossed back into circulation yet.&nbsp; I think I may put it in a cardboard flip and label it.&nbsp; At a minimum, it would be an example of this type of error.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
