[QUOTE="Asher, post: 7787505, member: 80285"]There's the hammer/anvil dies and the collar. This whole post makes the assumption that the collar is a bit larger than the planchet to allow metal to flow into a reeded collar and to allow a planchet to easily fit into the collar. Is there any standard difference in diameters? Say a planchet is slightly larger than what the coin press is set up for, but still fits into the collar? (The planchet is as large as possible to fit, so no off-centering) What would the struck coin look like? Just a slightly thicker coin? One reference I've used, but it's a bit advanced: [URL]https://coinauctionshelp.com/mintingprocesshistory.html[/URL][/QUOTE]
