Hi James,
      It's not that complicated.  The diameter shrinks, but the quarter
gets thicker.  The mass doesn't change(no nuclear fission/fusion involved
here lol).

  As a Metallurgical Technician ( qualified 1968 so  a little out of 
date)

I can't get my head around these shrunken coins


Where does the extra metal GO!

>From several years in the Tube industry I KNOW if you draw a tube so 
the 
cross section decreases by 30 % it gets longer by 30 %

The same goes for drawing wire and rolling strip
Has any one any idea how the metallurgy works ?

Does the atomic structure change ... like carbon and diamonds ?
