<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1251201, member: 66&quot;]I would think that a coin struck on a type I planchet or blank would have a high probability of being a partial collar or slightly off center.&nbsp; The problem is that the type I or blank is the same size as the finished coin.&nbsp; A type II planchet is slightly smaller than the finished coin so it drops down into the coining chamber easily.&nbsp; Trying to drop the type I into a hole the exact same size is very difficult.&nbsp; If it tips any at all it will jam up and not drop into the collar[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
