If for some reason you want to know on how to demonstrate a Greaser let me know and I will show you how I did it. its only 1 step. Report this Post to the Staff

As jdiablo30 stated, a Greaser occurs when grease gets between the planchet and die, and the details don't strike up properly. Report this Post to the Staff
