<p>[QUOTE="TypeCoin971793, post: 3595973, member: 78244"]For those reasons, they aren’t die transfers. I believe that the design was 3D-scanned, then the features were “enhanced” (stars, hair, etc.), then the dates were mapped from genuine coins, and then the (master) dies were CNC-carved and hardened. The loss of style resulted from the scanning and post-scan modifications. I call this generation the “enhanced” counterfeits as they are made to look sharper than the real coins![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
