Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the possibility of formulating an equation related to the striking of blank coins (planchets) with a press machine, particularly focusing on the vibrations and potential damage to the die used in the coin minting process. Participants explore the implications of these vibrations and how they might be mathematically represented.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant inquires about the nature of the equation being sought, asking for clarification on what it is intended to describe.
  • Another participant suggests that the equation could relate to the vibrations or waves traveling back through the die after striking the planchet, potentially leaving imprints on the press.
  • A suggestion is made that the equation might describe the rate of damage to the die press, likening it to a Poisson process.
  • The original poster expresses uncertainty about how to articulate their theory and mentions their self-taught understanding of physics, indicating a desire to convey their ideas despite lacking formal terminology.
  • The original poster claims that their theory could significantly alter perceptions of U.S. coins and suggests that their findings could lead to a major discovery, although they face skepticism from others in the community.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the specific equation or its implications. There are multiple competing views regarding the nature of the vibrations and the potential for damage to the die press, as well as differing levels of understanding and acceptance of the original poster's claims.

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes limitations in the original poster's ability to communicate their ideas clearly, as well as the potential for misunderstanding due to their self-taught background. There are also references to the involvement of experts and the contentious nature of the claims being made.

i was wondering if there was a way to put as an equation form: after a blank planchet(a blank coin) is struck with a press machine, that holds the dies(die is what creates the images on blank coins, heads=observe + tails=reverse). after it is struck is what i want in equation form. speaking of the vibration. where do they go?
with more than two hundred pounds per pressure and 10,000 coins per hour or it might be closer to 100 coins per minute, it has to make some kind of marks somewhere.
so can you tell me if i am wrong and can create some kind of an equation please, and thank you for giving me this chance to ask you all my problem.
P.S. i am a bad speller. lol
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What is the equation supposed to describe?
 
well I am trying to show that the vibrations or waves travel back through the die after striking the planchet (blank coin) and leaving imprints on the press. in both directions (heads and tails).
 
Do you want an equation that describes the rate of damage to the die press? It sounds like a Poisson process. You might try https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_process
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish here. Is this just peculiar interest of yours?
 
yes damage to the press, it is possible correct?
I am trying to prove a theory of mine but I know nothing about how to explain it to anyone, as I am self-taught. the understanding of what you all call physics is some what natural to me but would not be able to have a conversation with anyone else about it because I know nothing about what you all know, taught or learned. reasons being not knowing book knowledge of how its being taught(speaking of the lingo, I have my own and the simplest ways of explanations. example: the thing going through the center of that thing and ending over to the other thing). Of course I am not saying it out loud, I can say my mind is explaining it me how something works and also teaching myself.

p.s. if none of this makes any sense please ignore it, thank you. I have already been through a lot with these coin collectors that do not understand me and been ban out of two c--n forums for what I am claiming. if anyone is interested of any part of it let me know. my claims are very big and could change everything about how they think about U.S. coins(in my theory i mention it affects every coin ever made with press machine). when i add my part of the equation to there unfinished equation i come up with different results that make a lot more sense and can actually explain unanswered questions they do not know. because no one believes me as i am having a hard time explaining it to them, its been 15 months when i began.

I have been through the worst parts of it as they all know me and have them talking but no one see's it yet. i almost have the coins to prove it, lol. if i am right this will be the biggest discovery ever as i see and have predicted of what is to come of coins in the future.

WARNING: there is a lot of experts involved and not to mention these are u.s.a. coins...i say they are wrong!
