<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 26514783, member: 1765"]It takes several hubbings to complete a die, so a design element smashed by a slightly different design will only be partially smashed.  Your illustration of the overlaps is good here.  An unfinished die impressed by the Type I hub (BBB) then later with Type II (Normal B) will partially smash the upper curve of the BBB with the inside of the normal B. The outside of the upper curve of the normal B is faint because this part of the die is already incuse and the Type II hub isn't smashing anything there. The appearance would be about the same if this were a I/II rather than II/I design hub doubling.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
