<p>[QUOTE="quartertapper, post: 1539476, member: 16104"]States as simple as I can describe it, relief is the depth that the details are stamped into the coin. As demand for cents increased over the years, the relief was reduced as the minting process was sped up. Just look at the details of a pre-1969 cent versus a newer one. The obverse is where it is most notable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
