Ya think ? Then please explain why the TPGs felt the need to come up with the concept of "roll friction" to explain wear on the devices of coins...
I don't doubt your word for a minute Kurt. All I was doing was relating my personal experiences. And there have been millions of coins dipped in...
That's kinda what I was going to say, it always dipped right off for me just like haze on any other Proof. Haze on Proof coins is nothing more...
I'm inclined to agree that it looks like a railroad rim. Worth a premium ? Don't know.
