This clash event shows a rather large offset in position of the clashing dies. Clash marks from the letters  ONE CENT can be seen in the area above Lincoln’s head. The reciprocal clash mark is seen on the reverse die as a line through the letters CE of CENT.

The older of the two clash events does not have a reciprocal die clash mark on the obverse die. However, the line through the top part of the word STATES indicates that a clash event did take place in this area.
