<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Clawcoins, post: 3536469, member: 77814&quot;]you have two distinct, non correlated statements:</p><p>(a) When the hammer <u>strikes </u>the coin off center. it will be misaligned.</p><p><br /></p><p>(b) Upon ejection <u>release </u>there is a slight vibration.</p><p>Which can cause ever so slight doubling. It just shifts the image very slightly.</p><p><br /></p><p>for (b) strike/ejection doubling occurs when the hammer die shifts slightly when it comes apart - when the hammer die retracts from the chamber (probably just microns retraction time frame).&nbsp; Since the die itself was not totally, perfectly perpendicular aligned (due to wear in the entire machine etc), the parts of the coin that have not 100% cleared the die get shifted.&nbsp; This leaves a flat shelf of where it was before being shifted.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is not the result of a defective die, and not the result of a misaligned die.</p><p><br /></p><p>(a) MAD is misaligned upon striking, not a shift upon retraction.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>fyi, I just repeated what Seattlelite stated on the first page&nbsp; ...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
