<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 498088, member: 66"]Two things that can cause it. As mentioned punching the mintmark harder and deeper into the die will cause a heavy D, and polishing of the die can result in a thinner weaker D. The thin D shown here shows a die with heavy wear and often when the flowlines would start to become heavy they would repolish he die to remove the flowlines. If that has been done to this die in the past it could have caused the thin D.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
