<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jallengomez, post: 920669, member: 19748&quot;]So do I.&nbsp; In BU specimens it&#039;s probably harder to find a Wheat Reverse without this shadowing or &quot;ghosting&quot; effect than it is to find one with it.&nbsp; It&#039;s so subtle that it&#039;s hard to pick up on BN and circulated examples, but on BU examples the shadowing is very evident in the luster.&nbsp; If you look at it under magnification you will not see a definitive demarcation line like you would with a die clash, you just pick up the shadowing as you rotate the coin and observe the reflected light.&nbsp; I suppose it could possibly have something to do with deteriorated master hubs, but I think it has much more to do with metal flow into the obverse of the coin which had a much higher relief than the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
