razorear Pillar of the Community United States 613 Posts	Posted 05/02/2010 8:08 pm They may be referring to "Clashed Dies". When a planchet doesn't make it into the coining chamber the dies will clash against each other. Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 05/02/2010 8:50 pm I wonder if they're talking about a multiple-issue clash, like the Flying Eagles struck over Seated Half clashes. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/03/2010 12:05 am I think they are talking about date changes on the same die like the 42 over 41 merc. according to all that is holy in coin minting the 41 die should not have even existed for this to happen.

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 05/03/2010 11:07 am Class III Design Hub Doubling, same as the 1942/1 Mercs and other 20th century "overdates". A die was impressed on a small date hub first, annealed(heated to soften the die steel), and then impressed a second time with a large date hub. "One die was impressed over another die" should be corrected to "one die impressed over two different hubs". Something tells me that Fred does not do his own ebay listings because I have a hard time believing he would make such an egregious description error Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/05/2010 7:05 pm OK so it isn't one die impressed over another, it's one HUB impressed over another one. Makes a big difference. Sloppy Fred, sloppy. Report this Post to the Staff
