<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 8224214, member: 42773&quot;]So apparently the term &#039;die adjustment strike&quot; either needs to be cast aside or reinvented. If we can&#039;t know that a weak strike was created by an actual trial (as the same effect can be rendered by mechanical failure or maintenance) then simply calling the error a <i>weak strike</i> is sufficient, as [USER=92083]@JCro57[/USER] suggests. It&#039;s a weak strike of uncertain origin.</p><p><br /></p><p>OR...regardless whether the weakly struck coin was produced by a trial, or mechanical failure, or maintenance, in all of those cases the striking pressure had to be adjusted (or readjusted), in order for normal operations to continue, and therefore the term DOS can still be used. The definition is broadened to include a larger category of weak strikes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
