<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1264043, member: 18157&quot;]It&#039;s not a &quot;recognized&quot; variation. I don&#039;t know about PCGS, but NGC only recognizes variations documented by Cherry Pickers. I wouldn&#039;t call it an error, either because it is the result of die preparation and not the result of the striking process. If the streaks affect &quot;eye appeal&quot;, it may not affect the Shelton grade, but it wouldn&#039;t get any sort of &quot;Star&quot; designation. </p><p><br /></p><p>I agree that the streaks aren&#039;t enough of a variation to think about. The point I was trying to make is that there have been some dramatic texturing variations turning up. This is a completely new step in the minting process and it may be a number of years before these types of variations are fully understood and appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
