NUMISMATIC ITEMS THAT MIGHT BE CONFUSED WITH CHICH�S

Last week Dick Hanscom pointed out an item the upcoming December 9th Stack's Coin Galleries sale, and noted that it did not meet Dick Johnson's criteria for being called a clich�. This week Dick Johnson adds this list of numismatic items that are often confused with chich�s: -Editor

Any cast item with one or two sides -- not a clich�.
Die-struck uniface medal - may or may not be a clich�.
Die-struck uniface lead (or other soft metal) proof - is ocalled a clich�.
A splasher (always one-sided) - is called a clich�.

Die-striking with two thin blanks -- is a TRUE clich�.
