[QUOTE="cladking, post: 453316, member: 68"]Yes, but only 5 or 10% of the life of the die pair. The production of a given die pair tends to get separated somehow. It would partially be caused by the way in which coins go through hoppers where the coins in the center go through much faster than those near the edges but I believe there's more to it thabn that. Modern cent dies striking zinc can easily produce 1,500,000 coins and average over a million now days. Copper wore the dies faster and 750,000 was good for a die.[/QUOTE]
