[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 3930476, member: 59677"]Edge devices can be applied DURING strike or AFTER strike. To apply them during the strike, they need to be in the collar (inverted just like the die) - this is how the reeding gets applied to US coins, via a reeded collar. They can also pass - after the strike - through an edge lettering device (as [USER=77814]@Clawcoins[/USER] shows) that applies the lettering as the coin rolls over it under pressure. US Dollar coins are lettered this way and that's why the lettering can be right-side-up or up-side-down.[/QUOTE]
