<p>[QUOTE="rlm's cents, post: 966690, member: 7957"]My main argument was with the line "For one thing planchet marks do not remain on the high parts but on the low areas, metal flow wipes out any planchet marks on high points." Since you have agreed that that line was in error, that covers my post #26. As for the rest of your post, the only thing I will add is that liquids behave differently than solids. Since the surfaces melt.....</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the source of the marks, I just find it inconceivable that those marks came from any external source. How you can think something is capable of scratching the bust, getting into the gap between the rim and the bust, but not demolish the rim escapes me. BTW, they go right down the edge of the bust into the gap without interruption.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
