Dykil93 Valued Member United States 120 Posts	Posted 12/28/2024 10:23 am Hello, I was wondering how far a Business strike can cast a reflection of the object in front of it like a mirror? Pictures I provided might be blurry for the obverse design because I was trying to focus in on the reflection of my finger. Report this Post to the Staff

Dykil93 Valued Member United States 120 Posts	Posted 12/28/2024 11:17 am Hopefully I am wording it correctly. I can see the reflection of my finger in a business strike about 6.5 inches away. Mirror like reflection as well, like a proof would do. What would cause the finish to be more mirror like reflective than other business strikes?
