coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/19/2011 1:31 pm Looks like a hard polishing on the die to remove a clash. Looks like they worked it over good! Report this Post to the Staff

Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 02/19/2011 4:21 pm i would say over-polishing the dies is the culprit Report this Post to the Staff
