With the photo posted, I'm seeing a very subtle image of Abe--certainly not prominent.

Weak but still there so maybe just a little grease on die in that area.

Polisher thinned the die so much the sub devices are removed. All of the false columns, the FG and the Edges of the roof are often removed and the statue is often weakened. These are die events. They happen the more often the dies are polished to remove die events like die clashes, Feeder Finger Damage other die damage to the die. They rescue these dies to keep on using them. Sometimes a lot more is missing from a deep polishing:  The deeper the devices are on the die, the less often they are removed. Eventually the dies are retired and defaced:   |
