[QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 24570556, member: 44615"]Early stage yes. Flip over? No It's very simple.. Imagine a previously struck planchet somehow getting stuck to the Die and then it starts striking other blank planchets. The coins reverse would start acting as the new die. That's why you see the image of the Lincoln Memorial on the Obverse of that cent. There may be a bit more going on so hopefully others will chime in.[/QUOTE]
