<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3729414, member: 66"]Only if it is also SIGNIFICANTLY heavier. Thickness at the edge is more a function of the strength of the strike. A heavier strike means the rims fill better and the edge of the coin is thicker. Two planchets of the same weight (and hence thickness) one struck at say 60 tons and the other at 75 tons, the 75 ton coin will be thicker.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
