<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 4580718, member: 29239"]So you did a autopsy on poor ole Lincoln . In your other post you said it has nothing to do with a die being over polished and in this post you mention it has been abraided away. Abraided is a term used to describe a ground and polished die. The most common reason the dies are abraided is to remove die clash marks. The deeper the clash marks is determines how much of the die that has to be abraided away. I absolutely love the awesome 2005P bison nickels that have the super wide detached leg bison's. I also have a few of the coins with the strong clashed die marks before the dies were abraided. So the mint workers created another nice variety by heavily abraiding this die pair.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
