Are you saying my quarter and dime above are AT trout? If so you would be wrong again

Oh my goodness...... Paul- that 1923 Buffalo nickel is stunning. I know it is probably just a lighting artifact, but the date appears doubled, especially the "3". Not sure if there is such as thing, but I'll look into it to satisfy my curiosity.

Srs77- I'm loving the colors on that '21 Morgan. I can't believe you didn't get a from Cascade!

Your opinion regarding what is and what is not AT must be very different to mine.
The toning on your Dime and quarter is not consistent with how nickel coins tone under normal circumstances and the streakiness is indicative of brush marks which are left when a chemical is applied to a coin.
I would return these if possible because I think you have been "Had" with these Mate

Trout. Those "brush lines" on the dime are on the planchet they are roller lines not obliterated by the strike. These are 100% naturally toned This is fact not subjugated to opinion.

Srs, yes I missed it. Very nice for a 21

Like I said your ideas about what is or isn't AT are quite different to mine.
If these are indeed "Roller Lines" How do you explain the lines that run almost at right angle to them on the coin?

to me it looks like an interesting mix of roller lines and die scratches and Die Deterioration.
Feel free to call me Will.

It is an exceedingly rare occurrence that "Die Scratches or "Die Polish lines" carry on through the devices and design on a coin as these are recessed on the dies and very rarely get touched when a die is cleaned/polished.
"Die Scratches or "Die Polish lines" are also raised on the coin and not incused or flat.

Dollarman is correct. The majority are roller lines mixed with flow lines and polishing lines.. The majority diagonal ones, that also go through the devices, are roller lines. It's a tricky coin but this is coin 101 stuff trout. You're entitled to your opinion though. FYI, can we go fight on the Carr thread? I feel like a good ole Carr fight

There is nothing "Tricky" about these coins at all.
They simply have chemically assisted toning on them, Hows that for "101"
