smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 02/09/2013 6:23 pm OK, I can not remember if I ever posted this before and I can't find anything in my search, so here it is. I have a number of 94P Kennedys with what appears to be a die clash in front of his nose. Looks like he is snotting all over. LOL I can find nothing on the reverses though. Any opinions? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

RollSeeker Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/10/2013 10:29 am As coop showed, this isn't the usual sort of clash, and it seems unlikely to be a MAD clash. I'm thinking along the lines of polish marks, Die Deterioration, or even just PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/10/2013 12:35 pm I agree. It appears like a polishing to cover previous clash marks. The die is also a LDS example. The die flow lines are getting stronger in the fields. So a lot of coins were probably made with this die with these marks. Report this Post to the Staff
smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 02/11/2013 4:10 pm Not PMD as it is consistent on numerous coins. Polishing marks or some other such thing seems likely. Thanks for the clash pic. I can never picture that in my head. LOL Report this Post to the Staff
gamesthatgo New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 02/15/2013 10:12 pm What are the chances that the same polishing marks would show up on different coins of the same year? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/15/2013 10:24 pm Depending on how they are polished, they could happen on other examples during the run of that series. The polishing scratches eventually flatten dow on the die. So the exmaples with these marks will show on several examples until they flatten and look like normal coins again. No extra value for these as they are common. Report this Post to the Staff
