How common are clashed dies on 1976 T2 (thin letter reverse) Eisenhowers?
I found one with moon and bell remnants in the IGWT motto, a line in the field between the lip in nose and some moon behind the head on the obverse. The reverse has a pronounced forebrow, nose and upper lip to the left of the bell, a partial "E"(from the IGWT motto) between top of bell and moon, and back of neck line at about the 4 O'clock position coming off the moon.
It would be a strong MS65-66 coin except for a bag mark from moon to EPU motto on reverse, and as such would probably at best make MS64.

BTW... I paid $1.15 for it...

Die clashing is nearly impossible to get imaged on a scanner so if you're gonna keep this up, you really should invest in a camera and scope. Then you could get shots like this:
