matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 05/06/2014 10:00 pm Not as much as a fat John Travolta doing a revival of his disco days. (The devil made me write this.) Just WHAT kind of grease do you all refer to? Ordinary lubricant used to keep machines humming? Or a special grease used in coin manufacturing? I have wanted to ask this question for a long time.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 06:20 am Here is a nice filled die example: The rim is weak. What is the weight of this one? Maybe a thin planchet if it is underweight? Edited by coop 05/07/2014 06:22 am Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 11:44 am OP coin looks like a low pressure strike. Might be an underweight planchet. Note the difference in the rims compared tot he heavy Greaser shown by Coop in post #7 Report this Post to the Staff
