[QUOTE="alurid, post: 8326541, member: 81991"]I like your explanation of this concept. There are some points/areas on the surface of a coin that can receive a lesser amount of PSI pressure from the striking action. They are usually where design areas (voids) are the largest as these areas are a receiver for metal that is being displaced by the (flat blank Face area of the) dies as they squeeze closer together. When a coins press is run at a high production rate the coin metal literally does not have time to completely flow into those voids and obtain the full striking pressure. This is why FS nickel are HTF.[/QUOTE]
