<p>[QUOTE=&quot;playpossum0985, post: 1809006, member: 23806&quot;]Not if the die didn&#039;t disintegrate at this time. Imagine if the first layers of the face cracked, then partialy shifted on the die face, but didn&#039;t release at this point. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hardened steel die, with a soft metal planchet, then add a piece of hardened steel debris and slam it all together with 30,000 pounds of force. The soft metal becomes basicly a mold, correct? The hole at 3:00 sure looks like a piece of a spring, but it only went half way into the planchet, the other half had to go somewhere. With the planchet being encased when struck, it held everything together, at least for this strike.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
