<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2617626, member: 24314&quot;]Great question. Unfortunately, I&#039;ll bet no one here was ever at the Mint when a clashed die was removed from the press and sent to be fixed.&nbsp; Die polishing was probably similar through the years and only changed as more modern tools were developed.&nbsp; One FACT that can be demonstrated/proved by looking at the coins is that early 20th Century commemoratives are often found with circular die polish and business strike coins usually have back and forth lines.&nbsp; Therefore, authenticators I&#039;ve spoken with believe at least two different people/methods were used to work on the dies for each type of coin of over certain time periods.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
