[QUOTE="Collecting Nut, post: 7856003, member: 74863"]Just as the label reads. A T-1 or Type 1 planchet is a planchet that has been punched out but didn't receive the upsetting mill treatment. That is the process which raises the edges of the coin before striking. A T2 or Type 2 planchet has a raised rim or "proto rim". The upsetting is to get a strong rim on the coin. Because without upsetting the rim doesn't strike well. [ATTACH=full]1353543[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1353544[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1353545[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
