<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 396943, member: 11521&quot;]A Proof coin with mirrored fields will absolutely NOT have luster. It has mirrored fields <i>instead</i> of luster. Luster is created by flow lines that develop in the surface of the die as metal that flows across the die slowly erodes the die. A polished die will have no flow lines (or very few anyway). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A Satin Proof (and I suppose a Matte Proof) will have very diminished luster due to the finish. So no cartwheel luster here either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
