As the name implies, die adjustment strikes are used to set the distance and the pressure of the dies to the planchet. In this stage of operation, there can be a noticeable lack of detail to the coin.

A rare occurrence to find one of these die adjustments in circulation. NGC does not give them a numerical grade but attributes them if they are genuine.
