KittenLove Valued Member United States 158 Posts	Posted 06/14/2017 7:58 pm is the thickness on the date especially 5 caused by too much ink or is there another name for it? Report this Post to the Staff

nfine Pillar of the Community United States 3477 Posts	Posted 06/15/2017 10:43 am The mint doesn't "shine" coins, KittenLove. The mint produces coins using clean, fresh metal that exhibit their natural color and reflective properties. Report this Post to the Staff

Dustin6 Pillar of the Community United States 3516 Posts	Posted 06/15/2017 9:57 pm I wonder if they confused "ink" with the die. But thought the die is color, instead of what it actually is, the metal pieces that strike the coins Report this Post to the Staff
KittenLove Valued Member United States 158 Posts	Posted 06/16/2017 4:50 pm Dustin6...what you replied with is what I was referring....I just can't get past die/dye... Coinfrog...I have a couple but it doesn't go into deep details like the articles in this group and I do go to the articles you guys post with a link to read. I never realized there is so much to learn about coin collecting my vision what coin collecting is far from that. So...I do appreciate everything you guys replies. I am not a expert so I learn from the experts in this Community. You guys replies, websites on the internet can explain....I do hope you guys accept me for not knowing a lot of your knowledge...Oh, reading vs internet it would take me years for that.
