Not really expecting much on this one, but it has a different look to it. In the Motto is really were I see the differences and only very slight differences on the Liberty & Date.

What do you all think?
thank you for your time :)

When a die is polished, it reduces the fields. When this happens the devices on the die look smaller. So you have an example from a normal die and one that was polished and the devices were reduced. Both are from normal dies. Neither are a doubled die. Sorry

With the field reduced, the devices appear smaller because of the reduction of the field of the die. Hope this helps.

Thanks coop, I was actually wondering about that because like I said it looked different but not really doubled and couldn't figure out why. This is the first LC I have found where so many of the devices in the motto were polished down like that. Great learning for me.
