<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikediamond, post: 559432, member: 1859&quot;]It would be more accurately referred to as a blanking burr.&nbsp; It&#039;s a metal burr produced by a dull blanking die or a hole in the perforated base plate whose edge is dull.&nbsp; The burr is folded over during upset and is struck into the coin.&nbsp; It appears as a broad, symmetrical tongue of metal that extends a short way into the coin.&nbsp; It is always surrounded by a narrow fissure.&nbsp; The edge of the coin adjacent to the burr is completely normal.&nbsp; Rolling folds are rather rare, but not particularly valuable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
