Close up of some of the die scratches DDO pictures Edited by 2rtgah678 09/10/2022 01:20 am Report this Post to the Staff

2rtgah678 Valued Member Canada 291 Posts	Posted 09/10/2022 2:59 pm I own polished coins and know what they look like, this coin has full mint Luster and the high points of the coin have not been smoothed out like the others. Iylt stoll has reaised die scratches everywhere, there is little to now hairlines that look the same as cleaning. I guess u can't see it in the photos but I'm like 99% sure this coin has all original surfaces, imma bring it into my local coin dealer this weekend. Report this Post to the Staff
smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2333 Posts	Posted 09/10/2022 6:23 pm I still consider myself a beginner...even though I've been collecting since I was 8. At 61 now...I still get a little confused with die polishing. I was under the impression that polish lines are typically in the open fields and not on the raised devises because they (the devises) are the high points and get smoothed away with the strike? If I'm wrong...see...still a beginner/learner... Maybe another pic of the devises...not so close-up will give us a little better idea? smat Report this Post to the Staff
