<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rushcoin1, post: 24673573, member: 2791&quot;]I probably know the minting process better than most as I have been doing this for over 50 years and even visited the Denver Mint first hand. It was amazing how many coins are cranked out by so many machines so quickly.&nbsp; I was also able to explain to experts the reason that the 1997-P cent borrowed from the Denver Mint ended up with a Phantom &quot;D&quot;, after it had already been cleaned from the die.&nbsp; It is due to the compressed metal that goes deeper than the surface, thus the later die state coins produced ended up with the stronger impressions showing up.&nbsp; This may also be true of many RPM&#039;s, OMM&#039;s, etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
