  The 1880 is also a favorite of mine. Bill Fivaz sent me one of them when I was still working for ANACS and asked me what it was. It took me a while to figure out, as nobody had ever heard of a dropped die clash mark before.
  
  However, the type of error is much older. I bought in a 1799 B-16 dollar today that shows denticles clashed in the field below Miss Liberty's chin, which raises serious questions as to which was the hammer die on that strike.

  Great variety trio. Thanks for posting.
  
  If anyone needs the 1880, let me know. I have an extra one.
