<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2619142, member: 1892&quot;]A strikethrough means this feature would be bridging voids on the die, where the letters are. It&#039;s inevitable that 100 tons of force would push it somewhat into those voids. The marks here are perfectly consistent in depth across the lettering, and to my mind could not possibly have been left during the strike because the only way to create that consistency is to apply whatever it is to the letters when they&#039;re a positive - on the struck coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Otherwise we&#039;d have to believe something less than a millimeter wide withstood the force of the strike without bending.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
