<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RonSanderson, post: 2460632, member: 77413&quot;]The off-center punch in post #3362 shows what the planchet looks like before it is struck. I can visualize how the lines on the raw planchet can affect the strike of the coin. Depending on their intensity and whether they represent poorly mixed alloys, these lines could affect the coin with anything from lamination problems, to woody coloring, to linear patterns that show up in toning.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just some random thoughts...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
