    UPDATE: Since I already posted it, I'll just keep it. As @yosclimber reminded me, this isn't a counter clash it's a die clash. Thanks again @yosclimber.

    The clash marks you showed for George Washington $1 are normal clash marks, not counter clashes.
    So they are reverse features which show up on the obverse, and obverse features showing on the reverse.

    I believe counter clash means it is an obverse feature showing back up on the obverse, judging from your first post.

    You're absolutely @yosclimber! My mistake. I should pull the post. Counter clash and die clash... Thanks! 👍

    @OAKSTAR
    Very tough to see but these are some photos of the OP counterclash (not of that actual coin but of one like it).

    Yes, very difficult to spot. Thanks @MWallace !
