<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1119217, member: 66"]I feel there is a slight problem with the uniface theory. If two planchets were put in the press at the same time,that would greatly increase the pressure, and since there was no restrining collar the coins would most likely be larger in diameter than normal and have elongated denticals. The reverse dies for the 1794's were cut very shallow and it is not unusual for them to be worn smooth while the obv still grades G - VG. I would not trust an attribution of a "Uniface cent" on a 1794 unless the grade was fairly high.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
