Not sure how common these are. I am pretty sure that this one has it. Thoughts??

Not clear enough to tell, looks like it could be a struck thru Vs. clash?
@erwindoc
The die clash on these is usually visible on Bens lips. There is a 1963 bugs bunny (die clash upper lip)
Is this where you see a clash?

Looks like there is either extruded metal from the back of Franklin's hair to the D in God, or is it struck through something ? Broken die ? Gouge ?

Turn the coin over an tell us what part of the revers design you see to make the mark you believe may be a "clash?"
I thought this portion looked like the wooden top holding the bell. I am not sure, but it is definitely raised. I suppose it could be struck through something. I wish I could lay a black and white image over the bell. Maybe someone with better photo shop skills can do that.

Previously I had never noticed the Bell shape of the human head...

What is that wooden thing that the bell hangs from? I can see it could be a clash of that wooden edge. Or it could be a chip or bubble. Peace Roy

Yeah, perhaps if the other die was rotated. The lump of metal is raised too far to be a clash mark and does not match anything. I'll bet it is trapped gas.
As Insider2 said, the other die would have to be slightly rotated... and no other signs of a clash show up...It is raised metal though, so unless a serious die gouge, I am not sure what it could be. Cheers, RickO
Un-Popped lamination bubble,
or as Insider2 said - trapped gas.
Thank you Fred. Peace Roy

Looks more like a lamination to me.
If the surface is broken it is.
