<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2039904, member: 36230&quot;]MikeM makes an excellent point in that especially on such a generalized forum, technicals may not matter as much as common perception. The reality is, at least in my experience, that most collectors use &quot;die polish&quot; as a blanket term to cover any/all types of mint made lines that may appear on their coins. This is certainly not to say that this is right, but should be acknowledged. As an example, anyone who has spent a fair amount of time on this forum has most likely experienced a thread in which someone has deemed a coin cleaned or &quot;harshly cleaned&quot; due to the existence of &quot;die polish&quot; lines, and it is not out of the question that some of these people have misunderstood the oft-repeated claim that they &quot;cannot criss-cross&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
