[QUOTE="RonSanderson, post: 7793169, member: 77413"]Good comments. I can only add the elementary observation that if this damage is on the die, it is on the flat surface only, and the incuse lettering is unaffected. I can imagine the flat surface of the die (which strikes the fields) could suffer damage, corrosion, or rust that would not affect the lettering or devices. It could have been set on a shelf and rusted, or dropped onto polishing residue, and so on. Several of the previous posts seem very plausible. I eagerly await the reveal.[/QUOTE]
