Worn die.

 

Really? Why would that affect the rim? I thought the rim was struck first after annulling the metal.

 

I gave my opinion. Do you have an opinion? BTW, rims are not struck, they are upset before the coin is struck.
Annullling?

 

Right -

No - I have no idea other than grease.

 

Can you guys explain a bit I really dont know whats being talked about. The annuling,grease,worn die,and so on.

 

I just posted 5 videos on how coins are made. Start there

 

I think he meant "annealing".

annul - to declare invalid
anneal - a process using heating and cooling to soften metal

Darn SpellCheck!! :yes:

 

Die deterioration. And the rims on coins are created during the striking of the coin. The upset edge of a planchet is a thickening of the edge caused by inward pressure from the upsetting mill. It is not a rim.
