<p>[QUOTE=&quot;alurid, post: 4046040, member: 81991&quot;]I have been think about this a bit. Do you think the reason for that amount of die transfer is due to this being a Zinc cent which is a more malleable/softer metal than the what looks to be a copper coin shown by furryfrog02. </p><p>&nbsp;The copper alloy use in cents has a property that is called strike hardening and zinc does not.</p><p>I think that both the OP&#039;s coin and furryfrog02&#039;s coin could possibly be struck through a planchet clip caused by a stiff collar. I say this due to the curled up outer edge of the coin showing that it was struck in at least a partial collar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
