R-Dawkins Valued Member South Africa 105 Posts	Posted 04/26/2012 5:01 pm actually you can, when two planchets go into the die together it is possible... it would result in one coin with a blank reverse and one with a blank obverse...because the guy I bought it from had another coin with the reverse blank... or am I mistaken?

biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 04/26/2012 6:34 pm If two planchets went into the die together, both inside faces would have some transfer from the pressure, and both would have railroad rims (see glossary). If you weigh your piece, it's prolly significantly lighter than normal, from being filed down. Report this Post to the Staff
R-Dawkins Valued Member South Africa 105 Posts	Posted 04/26/2012 7:24 pm that makes sense. I just read that they used to file down some pennies and half pennies for a kind of pub game or something.. I got this when I first started collecting and was a bit umm.. excitable and naive. Ah well... Report this Post to the Staff
