Quote: Question: Was the opposite side showing a bending outwards from the hit on the obverse?
Well coop, I see no bending on the reverse, but then I only had to give it a light rap with the hammer.
I'll post up the reverse image of the same test coin. The design I chose is a bit busy (I didn't think of finding a better coin with a clear field. It is what it is. There is no bending.
If you compare the top of the arc on the obv the the bottom of the arc on the rev. NEAR the rim where the Oklahoma word is you will note a normal flatness. as opposed to the gouge in the same spot on the obv.
Funny thing though, I picked a quarter that does not show any copper on the reeded edge.. It is A 'D' coin.
