<p>[QUOTE=&quot;usmc60, post: 2904682, member: 76739&quot;]According to some members I&#039;m not supposed to have an opinion.But since you asked.I see the outcome is the same, some form of metal on the outside of a finish coin.Whether it was in the beginning of the blanks Being made, or in the rim formation or do to collar trimming..The outcome is metal on the outside rim of the coin..</p><p><br /></p><p>Asked this question at breakfast this morning at the restaurant, Put it to them as what is the metal on the edge of a piece of metal.</p><p>Needless to say it was overwhelmingly a burr.</p><p><br /></p><p>And a big no on the grease filled die or struck through grease. Anyone with any common sense knows that you don&#039;t get grease oil anything around the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me just say I&#039;ve talked extensively about this with a master technician whose taking these presses apart and put back together again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Give you an example a new coins from the mint sometimes you&#039;ll see white spots&nbsp; something on the coin, it shows up better on the new Coinage. That supposedly is cleaning solution that was left over after the cleaning process. This is a prime suspect For the catalysts – sticky stuff, that holds the production debris together.</p><p><br /></p><p>Little common sense tells you look what happens when you hold a new coin in your hand. Body oil Celine and dead skin are transferred to the new coin and can plainly be seen,&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t be surprised in a couple of years you start seeing more of debris filled or struck through debris and no mention of the word grease.&nbsp; USMC60[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
