John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/10/2010 08:19 am I know it's called "fining" but I don't remember how it happens. Your coin also has a nice die clash obv. & rev. The rev. also has a couple of nice die cracks. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 07/10/2010 09:58 am As John1 says, its a case of finning. Coin metal squeezes into the gap between die neck and collar as the result of excessive overall striking pressure or increased localized striking pressure that arises from a slight bit of die tilt.

twincam_04 Valued Member United States 420 Posts	Posted 07/10/2010 11:56 am the die cracks on the reverse are easy for me to see, along with the die clash on the obverse.. i am having trouble making out the clash on the reverse- should I be looking inside the columns ? going to try and find one of Coop's overlays now Report this Post to the Staff
