<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1773435, member: 66&quot;]You could say the field is incuse.&nbsp; the fields of the die is the highest part of the die and it is the first part of the die to make contact with the flat planchet and then the field is forced into the surface of the planchet.&nbsp; So it could be said that the devices of the coin are not so much &quot;struck up&quot; as the fields of the coin are pushed it.&nbsp; (In reality it is a little of both.&nbsp; As the fields compress the planchet the metal has to go somewhere so there probably is some rising up inside the details.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
