Record 11 1997-01-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Coins and Bank Notes
  • Numismatics
  • Coining
DEF

A thin and sharp upraised flange appearing on a coin where the rim(n.) meets the edge(n.) ;the excessive pressure between the dies and the collar during striking forces the metal to the limiting confines of the collar die, sometimes squeezing a tiny amount of metal past it.

OBS

A special rim, the wire edge is given to a coin either by accident or by design; unless clearly obvious, an accidental wire edge is not considered as a mint error.

OBS

Since "edge (noun)" is sometimes used instead of "rim (noun)", it is why "wire edge" and "knife edge" are used as synonyms of "wire rim" and "knife rim".

OBS

See related terms: rim (noun), edge (noun), square rim.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Pièces de monnaie et billets de banque
  • Numismatique
  • Monnayage
DEF

Renflement de métal en forme de fil tranchant qui se forme au point de rencontre entre la tranche et le cordon d'une pièce lorsqu'une pression excessive au monnayage coince un excédent de métal entre les coins et la virole.

OBS

Record 12 1997-01-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Coins and Bank Notes
  • Numismatics
  • Coining
DEF

The perfect right angle at the point where the flat of the rim (noun) meets the edge (noun), a requirement on modern proof coins.

OBS

The square rim is a result of the heavy pressure of the coining press in striking proof coins. The pressure forces the metal to flow out to the rims, to the limiting confines of the collar die. The rims thus have a more finished, square look, as opposed to the more rounded rims of a business strike.

OBS

See related terms: rim (noun), edge (noun), wire edge [USA].

  • Pièces de monnaie et billets de banque

Record 14 1992-06-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Landscape Architecture
CONT

Most large trees and shrubs require support staking or guying to hold them erect against buffeting winds. Wood or metal stakes are usual for single-trunked trees up to 3 inches in caliper and provide better support if used in pairs. Guy wiring with turnbuckles is used for anchoring large plant materials.... All wiring should be shielded with either rubber or plastic hosing buffers where it contacts the stems to avoid bark damage and the creation of an entryway for insects and diseases into the trunk. A wire collar should never be left in place beyond its original need, since normal stem enlargement will engulf it and permanently damage the vital interior plumbing system.

CONT

The technique used in the operation of a wood-fired appliance can have an effect on its efficiency in converting fuelwood into useful heat.... A flue pipe thermometer is a handy device for monitoring the performance of your appliance. Look for the type with a metal probe for insertion into the pipe rather than the magnetic kind. Locate it between 30 cm and 60 cm above the appliance flue collar. For optimum performance the flue temperature should not exceed 330 °C(600°F) or fall below 110 °C(200 °F) during normal operation.
