[QUOTE="dcarr, post: 319403, member: 4781"]What they are doing is perfectly legal. I suspect that what they do is the following: 1) Polish the whole coin. 2) Create a "mask" with tape, stuck to the coin, which covers the devices but not the fields. 3) Sandblast the coin. 4) Remove the tape. The tape prevents the devices from picking up a matte finish during sandblasting.[/QUOTE]
