<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2275959, member: 74282&quot;]&quot;Blockage&quot; was a typo. Carthago actually meant &quot;Brockage&quot;. A brockage occurs when the previous coin sticks to the reverse die(the &quot;top&quot; one), which is struck by the hammer and moved between each strike, and is not removed before the next strike. When this occurs, the new coin&#039;s reverse, instead of getting the actual reverse design struck into it, is struck by the obverse of the previous coin, causing the reverse to become an incuse mirror image of the obverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
