<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1607419, member: 26302&quot;]I am not sure why a &quot;good strike&quot; would have much to do with the flan. Unless the coin is offcenter, most missing legends I see are due to small flan. The OP&#039;s coin appears that way. I am not sure, even if perfectly struck, that the full legend would have fit on that flan.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hey, I agree Doug, a full legend is always a desirable trait. I guess I have seen too many of these billion coins to think its very achievable. THey do exist, but rarely. It seems the Alexandrian mint most of the time made the flans too thick to be wide enough for the design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
