<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HandsomeToad, post: 454614, member: 12965&quot;]There are coins that do not eject properly and end up getting a second stamping. They sell on Ebay all the time, so once it&#039;s been stamped, whats to stop the coin from slightly damaging the die when it gets hit the second time? The coin is no longer a planchet, it&#039;s fully struck and has a P mint mark on it now, so that mint mark is hit again by the die, except the coin is partially ejected so it isn&#039;t laying centered on the die and when the obverse die hits it, the P scars the die enough to faintly show up on subsequent strikes.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What is so hard to understand about that? It sure beats thinking squishy grease could damage a hardened die, but a struck coin can&#039;t? :goof:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
