After about five to six hours of working with overlays to see if a fit was possible, I came to the conclusion that this is not a die clash. The two strong diagonal lines in Washington's hair are not typical lines that you would see from a clashed die. They are almost parallel to each other and and none of the turkey's wing show such lines. The three small blobs under Washington's ear are spaced to close together to be anything on the wing. Another determining factor is that there were no obverse clash marks on the reverse die.
My conclusion is that this is some sort of die damage from an unknown source.
