<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 747889, member: 112&quot;]I would say that what you are looking at in the majority of those pictures where they do cross is a combination of die polish lines and flow lines, not die polish lines alone.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do grant you, that one picture by the eagle&#039;s beak does show a few curved lines. But those will be the exception rather than the rule. And they are not necessarily poilsh lines. Given the spacing they are most likely light scratches in the die face. And when a die is polished it is most often done with a flat faced tool that moves in one direction only with the face of the die held against it which creates parallel lines only. And should the die be rotated during the course of polishing any previous lines are obliterated by the last polishing thus again creating lines that go in one direction only.</p><p><br /></p><p>All of that said, I do not think the lines on the Frankie in question are die polish lines anyway. Could I be wrong, sure. But I don&#039;t think I am in this case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
