<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1790744, member: 66"]That is what is called finning. Some of the silver has squeezed up between the collar and the neck of the die. This can occur if the coining pressure is excessive, or if the die is not centered and is slightly off to one side (mis-aligned die) which increase the distance between the neck of the die and the collar making it easier for the metal to squeeze up there with lower pressure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
