<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 5174993, member: 66&quot;]The raised proto-rims from the upsetting of the planchet will be present, but not the rims like you see on a finished coin.&nbsp; That is a good way to tell a severe grease filled die strike from a die adjustment strike. On the grease strike that is extra material between the dies, so even though the coin details do not strike up the rims are fully formed.&nbsp; On a die adjustment strike they will be weak or nonexistent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
