<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3157870, member: 112&quot;]There&#039;s something that should be becoming evident as a result of this thread. Whizzing, harsh cleaning, polishing, buffing, die wear, die polishing - all of these things create lines on a coin. And yet they all look different and they are all caused by different things - and they can all be distinguished from one another. Assuming of course that one takes the time to learn how to do so.</p><p><br /></p><p>Those with experience will typically recognize each of them at a glance. Those without experience often confuse them, thinking one is the other or that they are the same. It is also not uncommon to have lines caused by one or two or even more of these things on the same coin, and that usually leads to even more confusion and misidentification by those without the experience to recognize it for what it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
