<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 201564, member: 6641&quot;]26.4 times the load of 17 mints serving the production of the euro.&nbsp; OK - I&#039;m sure that&#039;s a big part of the problem.&nbsp; Now, knowing that you are faced with this up front - how do you put a system in place to prevent error? I guess if I knew the answers to that the mint would hire me.&nbsp; :smile&nbsp; Conder101,&nbsp; and anyone else - I&#039;m not trying to give the mint folks a hard time as I have some wonderful examples of their beautiful work.&nbsp; Not understanding what challenges the mint is faced with or how they operate it&#039;s hard to understand why there would be issues with the new coin.&nbsp; For example does the thinner edge compared to the pound prevent the mint from a deeper strike on the edge?&nbsp; Would a deeper and slower strike allow for more control?&nbsp; Is the throughput just so high that they cannot control the process regardless of the technology? Thanks for some stats on production rates.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
