<p>[QUOTE="rlm's cents, post: 212734, member: 7957"]The 400 tonns is a unit of force. PSI is force per unit area (pressure). If it were applied to 10 sq. inches, it would be 40 ton per sq. inch (80,000 psi). The force required to mint a coin would be proportional to the size of the coin. The psi required would be appoximately the same for any size coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
