<p>[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 3235244, member: 59737"]I can understand your confusion. Think about the amount of pressure the dies strike a planchet with to produce the image. Metal literally flows from a flat planchet and raises up as other parts are smashed down. If that happened before the planchet was struck, the metal would’ve moved in and filled that gap. I’m not an expert, but I’d say imagine a (laminated) planchet like a stack of papers. Take a pen and press it into the pages. Remove the top couple of pages and you’ll still see an indent several pages down. That’s why you still see the design even though the lamination peeled off. Here’s one of mine for comparison. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]845732[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
