coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/15/2019 4:19 pm Well the multi hubbed coins have a taller profile. The single squeeze dies have a lower profile. The 1973 cents have the highest rims. So I'm not sure which you are referring to? Proof coins are double struck. Business strikes are just struck once. So that is why they have a stronger look on the devices: Report this Post to the Staff
