<p>[QUOTE="GeorgeM, post: 18713497, member: 28550"]From a process standpoint, how would that work? Would a series of planchets be run through the coin press with a blank die on one side to strike the One Country design against, and then the half struck planchets would be flipped and run back through the machine? If so, I could see how a clash could occur on the blank die (perhaps when the Indian Head Pattern was being used to do a double head variety?) & then be transfered to the One Country pattern during the restriking.</p><p><br /></p><p>But that wouldn't explain the appearance of die cracks on only one side of the One Country design. And, wouldn't the clash transfer occur on both sides (at an inconsistent angle too)? The 2nd strike could obliterate the clash underneath it, but I suspect it would still be partially visible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
