46,000 Post Celebration-A Broadstruck On A T-1 Blank

Just as the label reads. A T-1 or Type 1
planchet is a planchet that has been punched out but didn't receive the upsetting mill treatment. That is the process which raises the edges of the coin before striking.

A T2 or Type 2 planchet has a raised rim or "proto rim".

The upsetting is to get a strong rim on the coin. Because without upsetting the rim doesn't strike well.

Wow ! Congrat's ! Nice coin. No getting"Upset" over this one !

 

Wonderful coin and a great number of posts. Here's to 4000 more for the big 50k
Well done

 

Congrats on the 46K. Wow that's a lotta posts.

 

Nice pun!

 

Thanks and I’ll need a really nice coin for that number.

 

Being retired has helped as iI have more free time. Lol

 

Yep, something with a 50 on it, or a mintage of 50,000

 

Way to go CN

 

Congrats on your 46,000. A really nice broadstruck. Thanks for sharing!

 

I think it’s the T-1 blank that made it as nice as it is.

 

Congrats! That's a lot of posts! I just now hit 1,000. LOL

 

Nice coin. As for the posts, me thinks someone spends too much time here. LOL Congrats anyway.

 

I cut my lawn on Thursday. It’s 6” lawn do I was out cutting today but the rain stopped me. I don’t cut grass sitting on a metal mower with lightening and thunder so here I am on CT.

 

Heading out to finish mowing, I hope, before the remnants of Ida hit which is forecast about 7 pm. Currently it’s cloudy, calm and 81*.

 

Good luck. Hate seeing the damage left by yet another bad storm.

 

Thanks, I’m sure it will be just rain and wind. Just the remnants as I live about 1000 miles away. I won’t be able to mow for a week after that much rain though.
