<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtlee321, post: 2368392, member: 73983&quot;]It looks like the upsetting machine may have had too much pressure and rolled the rims too much resulting in a planchet slightly smaller in diameter with higher than normal rims that started to roll in towards the center of the planchet, similar to spooning a coin.&nbsp; The die&#039;s being proof dies, I assume have very sharp edges and probably shaved some of the rim on the first strike like a chisel.&nbsp; The shaved metal from the inner part of the rim was then flattened out even more on the second strike resulting in the slightly curved look to the anomaly.&nbsp; Of course this is all just theory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
