1983 Lincoln Cent with Die Clash or Die Damage

[MintErrors]

Another coin from the recently bought RPM and DDO / DDR collection. This one is a 1983 Lincoln Cent with a Die Clash on the Upper region of the obverse, near the IGWT motto.

I have provided a few different angles of the die clash. The holder says its a " 1983 die clash CLO-002".

A reference is here:

Here are the photo(s) of the coin(s) I have found so far:

But wait !


I have a second coin that is really close to the first, but does not exhibit the clash. The Obverses look a bit different. If I can find the time, I will match up die markers on the Obverse.

This is a well-known Type II counterclash. It actually features two counterclashes of the letters IN GO. There are no conventional clash marks in the specimens I've examined or the one you've photographed.
