<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3417052, member: 66"]Fred got to it before I did. There were a lot of these seen back in 2007. The edge lettering on the coin is incuse so the letters are raised on the edge die. It the pressure is too high forcing the coin against the rotating edge the coin may stop rotating. When that happens as the edge die letters come past the coin they don't impress letters into it, they scrape a gouge into the edge of the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
