[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3045075, member: 112"]Just pointing something out here. Do you know what burnished means ? It's just a fancy word for polished. Now those straight parallel lines that you see on the planchets labeled as "unburnished" - do you know how they got there ? It's because the planchets have been polished. It's just like it is with die polishing, polish, or repolish, a die, and don't do the final steps to remove the lines that you see - and you get straight, parallel lines on the die that are then transferred to the coins struck with those dies. Same exact thing happens with planchets. Polish, or burnish, a planchet and you get those straight parallel lines that you see on that one. The unburnished (unpolished) plachets are the ones with the irregular makes all over them. Somebody at the TPGs is either thinking backwards or is very confused ![/QUOTE]
