Well something sure did - the round, droplet looking spots are there.
But that is no reason to help them. Your product cannot do anything but make a bad situation worse. Why ? Because with what we have we can...
Perhaps. But I have seen many a coin ruined by it. I agree completely. And there are also plenty of coin dips that are the wrong ones to...
It's not that something does not resist the force - it is that the pressure is never created to begin with. A coin planchet is a compressable...
Yes, there is a subtle difference in the luster of a not fully struck area. And if you look at the examples I have posted you can see those...
That is true, sometimes. The times it is true is if the contact mark is newer than the rest of the surface of the coin. But if a contact mark is...
Easy, if the coin is dropped in a flat horizontal plane, what other part would you expect to come into contact with something except the high...
Of course there is a reason. The reason is because they believe in the genrally accepted idea. But the thing about generally accepted ideas is...
You guys are leaving something out of your equations to determine pressure. Consider - when a coin is struck normally, it is in a confined space....
They expanded the service and now offer it with other tiers, but it aint free.
The same way any repunched mint mark looks like one is on top of the other.

I agree, but I will admit I am amazed it looks that good after that long.
The reason I didn't respond in this thread is because I knew the answer before Thad ever posted this and I didn't want to screw up his experiment...
Why ? You can get MS66 coins in change at the grocery store. I used to get MS Morgans and circulated Morgans in the same roll. What I'm trying to...
Extremely unlikely. For one zinc is much, much softer than die steel. That's why it is used to polish it.
It's not that they are supposed to be weakly struck - they have to be weakly struck. That's just physics. if a certain amount of metal is...
No, they couldn't. There is no corner, it is a round, flat zinc plate. And if they even touched the die to the edge of that plate for even a half...
The Fed still doesn't roll coins. Coins are only rolled by private entities. Even those sold by the US Mint are rolled by a private entity.
Then me why that Jeff has not a single mark on its cheek when the entire planchet is covered with planchet marks. No Mike - I aint buyin it.
