It looks like there is the impression of a word around the 2 and some flowery shapes under the CENTS. I've looked at all the varieties I could find for this coin and I can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated.

Die clashes are common in the older type coins and adds no premium for the most part.

Agree with Daniel with the clashing. But WOW! That piece is an absolute stunner for a civil war era coinage!

Wow, I think that's it. Thanks! Even if there is no additional value it's nice to know what I'm looking at.
