<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 6515751, member: 104064&quot;]This is a pretty good short read on the process and history. &quot;How Dies Are Made&quot; <a href="https://www.doubleddie.com/58201.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.doubleddie.com/58201.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.doubleddie.com/58201.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I think of a hub as a &quot;master coin&quot;. Raised relief on the hub is raised relief on the coin, everything incuse on the hub is incuse on the coin - assuming everything transfers perfectly from hub to working die to coin. If you scratch the hub, it&#039;s raised on the die, and scratched in the coin. You can see a gouge in the corn husk on every Barber dime 1892-1899 because the master hub had the gouge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
