<p>[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 12975, member: 669"]Another possibility that was raised on a different forum is die polishing. It's nearly impossible to tell in a two-dimensional picture whether those lines are incuse or raised, but if they are raised, die polishing would explain everything, including the absence of marks on the design element. Everything raised on the coin is incuse on the die, so aggresive die polishing does not normally affect design elements.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
