I REALLY NEED A HAND- VAM GUYS ESPECIALLY

alright I'm taking a gander at my coins versus some over on David Lawrence's site and pull out my new 86 P- in a 65 holder. I know nothing to special, BUT- I notice that under the jowel a clash mark along the neck and a die break thru the 18 of the date. I flip to the ashmore site- wait 10 minutes to download 1500 pics-whew, scroll thru to the 86 and I find several clash marks the same as whay I have.
I flip my coin to see if anything is unusual on revese- and I see 2 lines running directly from the n of IN to the feather in eagles wing. I don't see anything like this on the ashmore site.

OK Vammers- did I find something new?

I have pics- posting ability as everyone is aware sucks- so If one of the gurus can lend me a bit of assitance I can email jumbo pics to you- I swear to the one above this is such a sweet find, all that from just browsing- and NO I did not see IT when I submitted to PCGS for grade- this is one of my pulled the trigger coins.

HEP ME PLEASE!.

  • That's the neck line clashed onto the reverse die. Nothing special unless you can find some clashed lettering to go with it.

  • Nope no letters clashed anywhere- but going thru my Vam book it does not show this raised portion coming from the bottom of the n to the feather line, it shows the clash on the neck line of the obverse, and as I mentioned there is a break in the 18 of the date from tip of neck to the 1st 8splittin the 1 just under the upper serif. And ashmore does not show anything with relation to the reverse of this date.

    any place else to search for this pic of the N?

    What would be the Vam on it.

    That the clash on the reverse meets the 'n' indicates that there might be a partial 'n' transferred to the obverse. If so, then that would be counted. If there's no letter transfer, then it's not anything special.
