<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2061455, member: 19250&quot;]Case in point the shield&nbsp; nickel weight 5 grams comp. .750 copper&nbsp; .250 nickel&nbsp; Dia. 20.5 mm&nbsp; vs Liberty&nbsp; nickel 5 grams&nbsp;&nbsp; comp.750 copper .250 nickel&nbsp; however dia. Was 21.2 mm. That difference&nbsp; of&nbsp;&nbsp; .7 mm thickness made the Shield&nbsp; nickel harder to strike using the same comp. Of copper&nbsp; and nickel. .7 mm thickness&nbsp;&nbsp; does not seem a lot but it was as dies only got 10,000-12,000 strikes before they exploded .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
