  Hey Mike,
  
  For the book, on the Lincolns, only included one as an example, I believe the 83 mad clash.
  
  Thanks

  If the 1983 cent you refer to is the one with an inverted IBER over the date, it's not a misaligned die clash. It's a Type II counterclash. See this recent Coin World article if you're not familiar with this error type:

  I have discussed this error type in other Coin World columns and in Errorscope.

  Mike,
  
  Thanks for the info, I removed the 1983 Lincoln cent from the book as it was not applicable to the subjects and might tend
  to be more confusing without a full discussion regarding it.
  
  Thanks
  Kevin
