Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 3:19 pm Might check the edge and diameter all around to rule out any collar issues as well. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 8:10 pm Note how the rim is wider on the dime below? Report this Post to the Staff
11997755 Pillar of the Community United States 2253 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 8:29 pm Thank you for the replies folks. So it is a tilted die strike on an overweight planchet. I need to invest in a pair of calipers. One of the tools of the trade that I'm missing. Thanks again Report this Post to the Staff
