Wow!
Is that a super-rare ($) date or variety?
When in doubt... don't.

Pup-picker - Please explain. It's Overton 110. But that really begs more information. The photos do not show a clash from a half dollar reverse die - or any single reverse die. The relative positions of visible lettering and the motto bits do not match a coin.

A great coin! The clash mark on the obverse do in fact show the reverse details from the coin shown. It is not too rare- I have 2 just cause I think they are so cool.

what fogie said. this(these) clashes are common on CBH. super strong clashes are also common but to see THIS many letters, this deep, is not common. dates in this range come with a variety of obv/rev clashes and the shield reverse on some rev dies can have many letters as well, sometimes with multiple clashes. :)

it is the motto letters.

I agree with the reverse clash, I also have two of them.

OK. I see my error. The prominent clashing is from EPU, not USA.

Thanks!

I have had several monster clashes from 1812, 1814, and 1814 where liberty shows in side and outside of the shield. I think i have two left.
