CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2269 Posts	Posted 01/28/2025 8:07 pm A pretty strong collar clash here with some interesting weakly struck rims. the coin weighs 11.15g so it is a little light but it seems like something else may be going on here.

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2755 Posts	Posted 01/28/2025 10:41 pm Anything out of place around the edge? Thanks, Doug. Adding, might double check the diameter. Edited by Halo1st 01/28/2025 10:44 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 4065 Posts	Posted 01/28/2025 11:40 pm Man, that is a ferocious collar clash! The lettering in USoA is showing a lot of metal flow towards the rim, or insufficient metal movement to form the letters. Almost looks like a bit of Smith Effect above the O. Is it possible that it's a tapered planchet? Doesn't look like a clip. Report this Post to the Staff

The edge thickness and reeding look completely normal. Besides being slightly underweight I can't explain the the weakness seen around the rim. Perhaps this clashing event jarred the die slightly out of place? "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

ErrorHunter1 New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 01/29/2025 3:35 pm This type of collar clash seems more common on Roosevelt dimes, I've never seen it on Half dollars. Very nice find. Thanks for sharing. Report this Post to the Staff
