<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 287392, member: 66"]The edge is applied to the planchet by forcing the blank to rotate between two edge dies, each of which contains half of the edge inscription. One die says FIFTY CENTS OR and the other says HALF A DOLLAR. If the dies are not returned to their proper starting place it is possible for the coin to rotate too far and part of the inscription of one die to be impressed over the impression of the other.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
