<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2722277, member: 24314&quot;]What I still don&#039;t fully understand is this:&nbsp; When the blank planchet keeps the reverse die of the second strike from touching the original coin, I thought the pressure of the double thickness (original struck coin + blank) was strong enough to flatten and obliterate the design of the original coin.&nbsp; On this coin it is just spread with no evidence of weakening or removing the original strike.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
