<p>[QUOTE="Jim M, post: 1578035, member: 4791"]A little more maybe you didnt know stuff on elongateds.. First I agree with the using only pre 82 cents. the Zincers will look bad in a few years, some actually turn black. On most elongateds there is a tab on one end after its been smashed.. that tab is the grab in the die so that the die can grab the coin and pull it into the roller. Also notice on most elongateds you will see initials somewhere on the coin after rolling. (NEWER ONES) Perhaps its a RR or RWD or OP.. thats the engravers initials. </p><p><br /></p><p>RR is for Rocky Rockholt, RWD is Ray Dillard, OP is Oded Paz the current president of The Elongated Collectors Club. <a href="http://www.tecnews.org" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.tecnews.org" rel="nofollow">HERE</a> There are hundreds of different engravers, I happen to collect ones rolled by Ray Dillard, Frank Brazzell, Oded Paz and Mike Mochizuki. If you like trains on elongateds, check out Mikes stuff.. (Google)</p><p><br /></p><p>Have fun and keep smashing as Prez Oded says..[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
