History The Liberty Cap large cent was issued by the Mint from 1793 to 1796. The Mint created this type of cent in an attempt to satisfy the public objections to the Chain cent and Wreath cent . It appears to have been a little more successful than its precedents, as it was continued into 1796, unlike the previous two issues, which were issued for one year only. In 1795, the planchets became too thin for the use of edge lettering on the coins, so coins from late 1795 onward have no edge lettering. Sources R.S.

Refimprove date April 2012 Image Letraset boegen.JPG thumb right The dry transfer technique was used in Letraset lettering sheets Dry transfer is a term used to describe decal s which can be applied without the use of water or other solvent . Sometimes they are called rub ons or rubdowns due to the method of application. The decal itself is on a backing material such as paper or plastic sheeting much like a Transparency projection transparency . The dry transfer is placed in the desired location with the backing side up. The decal is then applied by burnishing the backing with a stylus or similar object such as a ballpoint pen . The contact side of the decal includes a pressure sensitive adhesive the combination of heat and pressure causes the decal to stick better to the new surface than to the backing. When the backing is removed, the decal remains. This allows for ink only where needed even if the pattern is delicate, because the backing supports the decal while it is being applied. Dry transfers are used in manual technical drawing . Standard graphic elements such as title blocks, forms, patterned lines, shading, or piping or electronic schematic symbols are repetitively used. Use of a dry transfer reduces drawing time and standardizes appearance. ref David L.
