I looked it up and it does look to be. Shows a VF value of $225. This one maybe VG. I don't think it makes the F-12 they listed but I'm not so good at the grading thing. Starting bid may be the fair sale price if it is that clash. That's just my guess.

smed ,
Just curious but what is you opinion for a grade of the one listed above. I may be wrong but it doesn't appear much different from your VG-10.

It looks to have a bit more detail than mine in the eagles's wings and the wreath.

ASSuMEing mine is accurately graded (sometimes iffy for NGC and circ coins) then I would say that F-12 is fair.

Here are some more from the Eagle Eye website. Some high end, some fairly reasonable.

This specialized variety exhibits remnants of obverse die clashing from a Liberty Seated half dollar at the right obverse rim.

How is this possible, a seated half dollar and a flying eagle clashed die.
