<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bill in Burl, post: 3549736, member: 23692&quot;]The &quot;flaw&quot; at 9:00 that you note is a die crack with chips as well.&nbsp; The 2 coins are either from the same die, making them &quot;real&quot;, or the original coin was used as the master to make the electronically copied fake die (a very very slim chance of that).&nbsp; The more worn, bottom coin was just struck from the die later in the striking cycle (a later die state) where the crack had opened up more.&nbsp; The planchets with the 2 coins were not centered exactly the same, so the edges and reeding appear different.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
