<p>[QUOTE="greeneserrors, post: 505703, member: 16843"]I dont agree at all. Look at the "TE" of "UNITED". They are very poorly raised. the "T" looks like part of a stretched H. The rim near the clip on the reverse flows into the void as well. If it was ground down, the rim would be unchanged all the way to the edge and be sheered straight off. </p><p> </p><p>About the way the clip looks, its a part of the blank that's missing metal. When the dies struck the planchet, the metal near the clip didn't flow along the surface of the die to smooth it out. So on the edge of the clip your seeing some of the original condition of the planchet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
