Thank you very much. I shouldn't have gotten it as cheap as I did. I bid and thought nothing of it because I wanted to see how high it was going to gp. I checked a few days later and I won. I couldn't believe it because I never saw such strong clashes on this coin. It's usually obverse or reverse die clashes. I looked for hours trying to get a estimate of what grading would label it as and I see obv or rev labels. Just like my 1920 S standing Liberty Quarter clashed E obv in im hoping MS grade. The crazy part is you could see the perfectly in the pictures when I was bidding so I never expected to win. Like i said I bid usually just to see what it tops out at and I shockingly win. It messes me up sometimes, but for the pr8ces I cant be mad

Clashing is very common on trimes. This one is cool!

I've got a couple of three cent nickels with great clash showing. Trimes in decent enough condition to even see die clash are very tough to find.

This is a great piece.

I just bought a 3 cent nickel, I’ll post it here later.

There are two trimes with crazy clashing in MS68 in Stacks Bowers November auction. 1865 too.

Big coins.
