2016 quarter Die Clash on both sides?
I have questions concerning my 2016 South Carolina Fort Moultrie quarter. First of all, are die clashes considered errors or varieties? I found the mirror image of the reverse in some areas of the obverse, but it is normal with die clashes to have the same images on both sides? I hope the pics will show what I mean. On the obverse there are areas where you can see the flag(by the G and T in IN GOD WE TRUST), part of the flag poll and shoulder(through the T and Y in LIBERTY), the top of soldiers boot(Washingtons eyelid),ship sails(beside the RIC in AMERICA). On the reverse you can see an upside down image of the side of the soldiers face and uniform(matches the "negative" space) There's also a bit of mechanical doubling, and he has some trash/ grease or something extra on the side of his hat as well as on one of the ships sails. I will post the pics with the circled areas on obverse then the area on the reverse that matches. I have more pics but was only able to post 8. Thank you in advance for any info!You do not have permission to view this gallery.

I consider them die varieties because the clash remnants are on each coin. (Not hub doubling or an rpm variety of course.)
In my mind, striking errors are a "one-of-a -kind" event. No two are exactly alike.
EDIT: I forgot to mention how much I like this clash. It has some nice details.
And a clash will show details from the opposite side of the coin.
For those collectors not familiar, here is a link to denominationsl overlays @ Maddieclashes.com

(Unfortunately, they don't have many of the quarter overlays up yet.)
