<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brg5658, post: 1707228, member: 29751&quot;]Die chips and cuds are also commonly occurring &quot;raised/relief&quot; types of errors.&nbsp; You didn&#039;t mention those.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, where you talk about die gouges, mentioning that this &quot;raised&quot; effect is also seen on coins were the dies have been crudely repaired, with die polishing marks cut into the die (and subsequently, raised on the final struck coin).&nbsp; Those die repair striations are quite common and can be differentiated from &quot;harsh cleaning&quot; because the striations are raised, not cut into the coin&#039;s surface like is the case with cleaning -- and, because the die repair (polish) striations don&#039;t go over devices, but rather <i>seem</i> to &quot;disappear&quot; behind the devices.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nice pictures and write-up otherwise.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
