<p>[QUOTE="justafarmer, post: 24670823, member: 3926"]If the design is incused into the coin rim - it would be raised on the collar. Therefore when the coin is struck the metal would flow around the design element on the collar. In this case the collar would be stuck in the coin. If the design is raised on the rim - it would be incused on the collar. Therefore when the coin is struck the metal would flow into the collar. In this case the coin would be stuck in the collar. The collar has to be segmented so it can be pulled apart to release and eject the coin without shearing the design from the rim.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
