<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KurtS, post: 2090323, member: 11786&quot;]I think what I&#039;m describing is pretty clear and logical. When a clipped planchet enters the coining chamber, the &quot;recess&quot; I&#039;m talking about is <b>where metal is missing</b>--<i>due to the clip</i>. When struck, pressure is exerted from both sides onto the planchet. This causes metal to flow into that &quot;recess&quot; (the clip). Because metal is flowing into the gap, there is less pressure to strike up details such as denticles right next to the clip. This isn&#039;t my own idea, but something I&#039;ve learned from error experts like Mike Diamond. I think both pictures above of clips on IHCs shows this clearly--as well as that &quot;Blakelesly Effect&quot; too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
