<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1436796, member: 66"]I don't KNOW which is "correct" but I prefer the first method. Determining the area is much more difficult, and to me the term off-center seems to imply "how far off it is from being centered?", not "what percentage of the design is still showing?" or "what percentage of the planchet is unstruck?". A coin where the edge of the design is at the center of the coin is "50% of the diameter off of being centered" or "Off of being centered by an amount equal to 50% of the diameter".[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
