<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NorthKorea, post: 23997639, member: 29643&quot;]The cheekbone looks like wear. Period. The other color changes seem to have texture, but the cheekbone is flat in a way that appears like wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>As to Charley’s incessant circular argument that refuses to accept wear to mean a break in luster, despite that being the numismatic definition of wear, I don’t know. How does one define wear without referencing luster? How does one define a break in said luster without the aforementioned wear?</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess we start with the dies. You take the perfect counter-image of an original die. If the flatness is higher than expected, it’s die wear. If the flatness is lower than expected, it’s coin wear. Use whatever definition of wear that you find in a dictionary that relates to damage on a metal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
