Every other detail on the front and back are crisp. All 5 steps are visible. If you notice the shadows in the picures I tried to get every angle of light. In some light you cant even see the UNUM...in other light it is very faint. What do I have? Report this Post to the Staff

CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 07/09/2011 2:20 pm I agree with the above posters. It's pretty common, so a grease-filled die has to be more extreme than that to carry a premium. Report this Post to the Staff
