I was reading about 'bubbles', MattGold's thread. I googled a bit but didn't find much. Anyway the very same day I found this:



To me it's like a volcano, raised above the field but with a crater in the centre:

Not really, I can post a pic. I see what you mean by centre punch strike prior to drilling. Why not place it directly at 12 o'clock? :-/

I've never tried to cut a cupro-nickel coin but know that aluminium and brass clog an angle grinder wheel very quickly. I suspect coins would be similar.

If it were a strikethrough, the bottom wouldn't be smooth, and there wouldn't be a raised crater around it. So yeah, PMD. But you knew that already. :angel:
