coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/12/2017 12:17 pm When a die is over polished, the shallow devices can be polished away from the die. It was on the design, but now it is no longer on the coins because the fields were thinned and part of the shallow devices went away. Report this Post to the Staff
