<p>[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2703851, member: 71723"]I BELEIVE the squared off rims come from a) striking the coin twice and, b) striking it more slowly and at higher pressure. To answer your specific question, I think it's enhanced coin to collar contact. We already know what happens when proof dies are used to strike business coins. The wide AM and narrow AM cents show us this clearly - not a whole lot.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
