In my view, once a die left the die office and was issued to production they never intentionally altered it. It was only production using the die and polishing it that changed the die state.</p><p><br /></p><p>I agree people may call things like 3 legged buffalo varieties, but they are a little like First Day Kennedy's, made up for people to promote and make a fast buck on.
