Good Evening!

OK - I did post a question a while back regarding a possible 2024 Greaser with DDO.
However, I am thinking these 2024's are over polished dies.
First: you can see the lines which (I think) look like they would have been made by someone polishing the die.
Second: I see way too many of these which all look about the same. I have a whole bunch, just in one OBW roll, which look alike. Both of these coins I posted are from the same roll - and I have many more. Wouldn't a true Greaser lose the affect with each hit as the grease is spread out?

Does my new opinion make sense? Thoughts?

Thank You.

Looks more like a Greaser to me, rather than an over polished die issue.

Oh really!!
A Greaser would have all those lines?
But great for me then - I have a whole box of them!
I just started questioning myself because of having so many

Well the lines are from die polishing - the missing L could be a Greaser problem as the other letters look fully struck although affected by Die Deterioration.

Also - die polishing makes letter/numbers smaller - filled dies make them larger.
