<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1322020, member: 29239"]Mike you can go back and read what I said and I'm sorry if you can not see any insight in what I wrote.. I don't see how what I said teed you off so much. I was just trying to give you some good information . I have learned that we never get too good or too old to learn things unless our ego blocks everything out. also like I said only a hammered edge coin or a spooned coin can be flared out enough for this thin apron to be folded down this much and if this is not the case then why should we not take the time to check for some type of error or whatever ? a spooned or dryer coin usually has rounded edges and is almost allways smaller in diameter. My belief is that when a capped die becomes about totally worn away and the die starts to become clean again some of the super thin pieces from the die cap can somehow become fused to the new planchet when the die strikes it. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you want to see the OP's coin he may send it to you if you ask him to. If you check it out and the edge of the rim and the diameter of the coin is normal then something else did this. If you don't want to reply to my posts then no harm is done here , We don't appear to be doing any good by butting heads anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
