<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 1363425, member: 11521&quot;]On the MS-63 and the MS-65 the lines are die polish lines. Die polish lines are raised and hairline scratches are incuse on the coin. Notice how the lines are in the fields but do not go across the raised devices (Kennedy&#039;s bust, lettering and numerals in the date). This is because the fields are the highest part of the die and the polishing does not reach down into the recesses of the die. So the raised devices (which correlate to the recessed portions of the die) will not have die polish marks. (As with most things, there are occasional exceptions.) Scratches would go across the fields AND the raised devices.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
