<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 2370945, member: 73165&quot;]I read the whole thread here, and all I can really conclude is that I&#039;m not buying the &quot;harshly cleaned die&quot; theory.&nbsp; If that were a possibility, why would there be no reference to it in hundreds of years of numismatic literature (or its proxy, Google)?</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d like to see good pictures of the coin outside the 2x2 as well.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think these lines are created by the mylar, but some of the toning might be accentuated by it.&nbsp; I know I&#039;ve seen hints of rainbows on coins that weren&#039;t there once I busted &#039;em out of the 2x2s and put &#039;em in Air-tites.</p><p><br /></p><p>Based on what I&#039;ve seen, I&#039;m leaning toward whatever it is having been on the die to begin with, but I&#039;d love to be persuaded otherwise by the aforementioned pics outside the 2x2.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
