coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/09/2022 3:52 pm Looks like the die has been over polished. When the polisher affect the bays, it reduces the height of them making them shorter as the fields go away. (the bays are even with the fields, thus when reduced, the the columns will show then shorter in height. The statue devices are sub devices and also affected by this field reduction) So the statue was just a field alteration. Report this Post to the Staff
