<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1895172, member: 24633&quot;]It isn&#039;t all that unusual for the details of the moon to remain unaffected. The correct term is &quot;grease-filled die&quot;. In other words, grease has built up in the recesses of the letters of &quot;ONE DOLLAR&quot; causing it to disappear.</p><p><br /></p><p>If all of these came from the same roll or bag, it is possible that they were all produced from the same die. I once searched a $50 of 1980 Lincoln Cents and found 228 &quot;Y&quot; clashes that came from the same die. I knew this because all of the coins had the same markers.</p><p><br /></p><p>The US Mint produces our coinage in &quot;coin turn&quot; which means that the reverse design is &quot;upside down&quot; in relation to the obverse design. Some countries do use &quot;medal turn&quot; which means that the reverse is &quot;right side up&quot; in relation to the obverse design.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
