<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2506140, member: 24314&quot;]Shows what I don&#039;t know!&nbsp; Rick is an accomplished numismatist. I have a copy of his book in my library and read it when it first came out.&nbsp; Missed &quot;high point pitting&quot; though, otherwise, &quot;we&quot; (me and the mouse in my pocket <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />) should have explained to him that perhaps &quot;pitting&quot; was a derogatory term that does not describe the different shapes of the marks that were not completely struck out.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thankfully, it appears this term has not caught-on in a big way on the Internet. </p><p><br /></p><p>ERROR-Ref.com calls them &quot;tumbling marks.&quot;&nbsp; IMO, this is a much better term to describe the marks imparted to the planchet before it was struck.&nbsp; Perhaps you&#039;ll consider using that term in the second edition of your book.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; Just a thought as it is your book.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
