Die Clashers

In just the space of a week, two threepences arrived that have not only the typical obverse ghost image on the reverse, but also stong reverse imaging on the obverse. I don't think I've come across two more interesting examples of the double clash.

    I've seen quite a few double die clashes. I like different strange die varieties and errors.
