<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 516532, member: 112"]No, it wouldn't. People often think of the design of a coin just being on top of the coin, but it isn't. It goes deep into the coin. Let me explain it this way. If you were take a coin and file off the design so that you couldn't see anything - it just appeared to be flat. And then you treated the coin with acid, the design would reappear. The acid would eat away the softer metal of the fields leaving the harder, more compressed metal of the design visible again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Same thing happens with laminations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
