[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1417575, member: 22585"]Thanks Doug. Maybe this question is for another thread, but I'll ask anyway. I often see die polish lines on coins. Is the die polishing done only prior to its first use? Or do they pull a die to polish it when it exhibits some sort of weaker strike or other criteria? I guess I am curious on what maintenance goes into a die throughout it's life cycle, if any. If it matters, I am referring to coins minted for circulation.[/QUOTE]
