<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinchemistry 2012, post: 2039074, member: 28107&quot;]Your explanation fails to account for Jason&#039;s coins, which Roger&#039;s comments would support as die polish on his coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>You were also wrong about die polish lines never existing on devices, a topic that was also discussed in this thread and agreed upon by undisputed experts on the NGC Forums.&nbsp; This topic also appeared in a thread where I challenged your assertion that die polish lines can never appear on the devices.&nbsp; To put the thread into context, there was a SEGS Lincoln Memorial cent that you concluded was categorically cleaned because die polish lines could never exist on devices.&nbsp; Without opining, I said that this was not possible to tell without better photos to rule out the possibility of die polish lines.</p><p><br /></p><p>And Roger&#039;s comments were in reference to Bob&#039;s posted images and did not state that die polish lines can never criss-cross.&nbsp; In fact, Roger even stated that the opinions regarding die polish made by the members there were sound and reasonable.&nbsp; Moreover, a former NGC grader, cameo CAC, and top numismatist at a major auction firm, also categorically stated that criss-cross die polish lines can and do exist and that this is often seen in the Barber series.&nbsp; So even if the lines on Bob&#039;s coin were &quot;die maintenance&quot; or &quot;die repair lines&quot; it does not follow logically that die polish lines never criss-cross.</p><p><br /></p><p>So yes, I do think you are wrong, and nothing that RWB stated seems to dispute that conclusion.&nbsp; I also agree with brg5658.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
