<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tommyc03, post: 2898252, member: 17665&quot;]If I may... a die chip usually cannot be polished away as the damage to the die is usually too extensive to allow for polishing at this point. Once a crack or chip appears the die should be taken out of service and retired. Polishing usually occurs when a die clash appears, but not always. Die clashes occur when the hammer and anvil die collide with each, to varying degrees, when a coin fails to enter the chamber or when the dies are out of adjustment and too close to each other also causing a clash.&nbsp; Of course, and as always, I stand to be corrected.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
