Thanks for the info on the late die cap stuff.

But I just can't see how any flow lines on the die cap could transfer to the new planchet with such great detail.

Same here - which is why I don't think it is one.. I wish Mike Diamond would pop in and have a gander and wow us with his expertise.

The cap was very thin to allow that much detail to be struck up. Nice pick.

Mike did take a look and had this to say - "The variety of textures and topographies associated with capped die strikes is endless. I don't think these radial lines are properties of the die. For some reason, the working face of the die cap developed this rather unusual pattern of metal flow." - Mike Diamond
