    I can't argue. They should have gave the guy a bit more detail and some hair. ;)

    From what I understand, this has something to do with the draw rollers that create the strip that blanks are punched from. After that, toning reacts to the surface.
    I welcome any other thoughts.

    Correct.

    I like the purple on this coin - an unusually attractive Ike.
