<p>[QUOTE="mikediamond, post: 2123716, member: 1859"]The subequal strength of the rings would remove that diagnostic from consideration. So in this case, you rely on two other diagnostics. One is the aforementioned sharp, slightly irregular internal margin. The second is the rough floor of the depression. If this was a weak strike, the floor of the ring would simply preserve the original surface texture of the planchet, which is relatively smooth, with perhaps a smattering of tumbling marks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
