<p>[QUOTE="rlm's cents, post: 2043514, member: 7957"]You keep avoiding the question. If you attempted to push a cloth into the crevices to polish them, you would be Charles Atlas before you were done. You don't polish hardened metal dies like you do silver. And, as soft as you seen to think a cloth is, I will bet it still could not reach into Lincoln's ear on the die. Don't believe me? Take a polishing cloth and try to polish Lincolns ear hole on the coin. Good luck. Oh, and remember that die is 100 times as hard.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, a mirrored surface REFLECTS light. It does not scatter light.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
