dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 10/20/2015 2:56 pm the appearance of the slightly proof like devices over the mirrors also lend credibility to the fact the dies were polished in a later stage of use. Report this Post to the Staff
GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 02:27 am I have read about the die polishing lines on the 1862's, and think they account for some of what I see on my 1862. These lines puzzled me for years until I researched the issue a bit further. The photos do not capture them well, but the planchet does have a series of parallels lines. I think the coin was dipped and/or lightly cleaned as well, however. A nice series to collect, but definitely agree, they are difficult to find absolutely problem free. Report this Post to the Staff

jack316 Valued Member United States 392 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 3:51 pm GERMANICVS - That is a beautiful coin. We should all be so lucky to own one this pretty! As you look at what's available among raw Seated Liberty dollars (especially on ebay), your coin really stands out. The die polishing marks don't take much away from its GLORY, and because of the known issues of the '62 mintage, it's just part of the coins' story. Jack Report this Post to the Staff
