<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 724961, member: 5233&quot;]The reason the pattern is different on a Peace Dollar than a Morgan is due to the surface characteristics of the coins.&nbsp; Peace Dollar&#039;s have a much smoother surface than Morgan&#039;s on a microscopic level...as a result, the Morgan has much more refractive properties when an oxide layer as built up, this results in the colors.&nbsp; Because the Peace Dollar is much smoother, it&#039;s refractive properties are greatly diminished with the same oxide layer present.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
