Interesting. Why? First the rim bur broke off the going into the chamber, was struck and fell off the coin. But why is this interesting? Note the bur fell on the top of the coin where the hammer die struck it on to. The coin. Still interesting? Yes it proves that the hammer die is the reverse die. How does this prove that? When the bur was loosened, it remained on the top of the planchet. If it didn't happen that way, then it would have fall away from the strike area. I guess I'm over thinking this. LOL
