<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 214011, member: 66"]Michael Lantz, chief die setter for the Denver mint from the early 1960's to the mid 90's, said at a presentation at the Central States Show in Columbus last year that when they started striking the SBA dollars they used a setting of around 70 tons per square inch. Now the quarter is a little smaller than the dollar so a figure of around 60 to 65 tons seems reasonable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
