Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 7003 Posts	Posted Yesterday 7:53 pm I seem to remember that we were just discussing this in the context of improperly annealed planchets and sintered planchets. Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5938 Posts	Posted Today 39M ago Quote: ... What do you see? The images in the ebay link show a yellowish tint from a reflection @ k3 to the center and then up to k12. I can't tell if the discoloration @ IGWT and below the point of the bust is coin discoloration or reflection. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
