FShaw New Member United States 30 Posts	Posted 03/10/2018 2:52 pm It actually casts a shadow so it's not flat. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/10/2018 3:02 pm Is is thicker on the field? That is probably where it is tallest. Often a die chip will look like a piece of chewed gum on an area. Report this Post to the Staff
FShaw New Member United States 30 Posts	Posted 03/10/2018 7:39 pm Actually, it does look like a piece of gum, a little larger or close to the same size on the sun as on the field. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/10/2018 7:56 pm The reason it looks like gun is that the die actually breaks away leaving a void in that area. Thus the planchet fills in the void showing the rough edge of the inside part of the die as the highest point. Report this Post to the Staff
