<p>[QUOTE="non_cents, post: 1607060, member: 30970"]When a coin is struck by dies, sometimes foreign material can be stuck in between. Grease seems to be present on the dies often, and under the extreme pressure of the dies, a liquid can act as a solid, clogging up parts of the die, and prevents the coin from receiving a full strike. It is common to see weakness, and sometimes full on omission, of the motto or parts of the design on a coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
