<p>[QUOTE=&quot;philologus_1, post: 8318636, member: 92212&quot;]Thanks Donna, I suspect you are correct. But even with that, the stand alone word &quot;marks&quot; (separate from the chips comment) baffled me. I do not recall seeing it before on an ancients label. Bankers marks. Counter-marks.&nbsp; Brush marks. Maybe even edge marks (though more likely on a modern coin to denote wheel marks). But just &#039;marks&#039;? </p><p><br /></p><p>I see obvious surface marks, but they don&#039;t seem particularly comment worthy for tets in this grade. </p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom-line: A friend asked me exactly what &quot;marks&quot; referenced on this example and I was unable to give an answer with certainty. After looking and researching I began to wonder if perhaps &quot;marks&quot; was a term with a meaning beyond what I know. (And I&#039;ll be the first to admit that there is <b>MUCH</b> beyond the realm of what I know.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
