[QUOTE="Lev99, post: 4859003, member: 103627"]I think 3 looks most real at least on uniformity, followed by 1 as some sort of special minted (distortion and shadowing messes with photo). Curious to see the results. Some edges look pressed, while some look like they’ve taken on the stamping cuts (shear marks?) from the dies or from production methods. 2 looks filed. 4 the left indent(?) is huge compared to the others. Quality control and die usage matter. A mint that replaces worn dies earlier may have better edges than an operation on a shoe string budget.[/QUOTE]
