<p>[QUOTE=&quot;orbeus, post: 1725979, member: 53913&quot;]I may not be educated to the finer points of coin production, but there&#039;s really no call for insults or condescension.&nbsp; If you wouldn&#039;t mind, perhaps you can link me to some good videos about coin production that might explain the process better so that I might be able to construct a more educated theory.</p><p><br /></p><p>Forgive my naivite, but what aspects, specifically, are so outlandish?&nbsp; Are you certain that the process you describe is the same as it was in the late 50&#039;s?&nbsp; Could even a single flawed or damaged die allow nickel planchets to get trapped beneath the retaining collar?&nbsp; Why or why not?</p><p><br /></p><p>As compelling an argument as &quot;It is plated.&nbsp; Summary follow-up remark,&quot; is, I still believe that, at very least, the matter warrants further investigation.&nbsp; My intent is to draw a fully educated conclusion with as much <i>evidence</i> as I can muster from both sides.&nbsp; If you can help to provide such evidence, or can suggest ways of proving or disproving either side, welcome to the discussion.&nbsp; If all you care to do is naysay, I have heard your opinion, value your input, and would humbly request that you simply find another thread and save yourself the frustration of dealing with a hardheaded newbie like me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
