coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/25/2023 2:15 pm Just a die polishing issue. It was there when the die was new, the polishing reduced this and other areas on the die, making the devices appear weak/missing. Just die events. Just something new ones finding interesting. After they are seasoned, they will recognize what they really are when we see this die events happening on dies that are polished. Until then, they still have their eyes closed and grasp at something to hold onto. Later they will look back at their collections and realize the truth. Report this Post to the Staff

I'll agree, Though I wasn't there in the making of the dies nor die polishing events. My question is why 99.9% die polishing events that can happen any year happen on 1969 and 1970 in this manner? For those that did their homework know that the alignment lugs for dies making, were removed in 1969 and reintroduced in 1973 do to some major Doubled Dies during the previous years. The alignment lugs were reintroduce 1973. Note the Philly mint was relocated the year of 1969. Also a secondary RDV was introduced in 1971. So question is why 99.9% 1969 and 1970 abraded away so easily these two years? No matter if eyes are open or eyes closed, hopefully we will all awake and find the answer. Thanks, Doug.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8743 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 10:11 am So Doug, are you saying that the making of the dies, when they quit using alignment lugs, created a weak strike in these areas? I'm not that familiar with what you are talking about but do know I can generally see abrasions in these cases, that leads me to believe it is typically due to abraded and over polished dies. You can see the abrasions in the OP's pic. Or are you asking why dies from this time frame were overly abraded and polished? I'm just not quite following but I am a little slow. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

No and maybe yes, the removal of the the alignment lugs seem to have created some awesome doubled dies. To me I question how the dies were harden Something seems to be missing these two years.
