<p>[QUOTE="TyCobb, post: 3726641, member: 99137"]Just started reading the ANA grading book and now know what caused the tongue and possibly tail. It says that once a die becomes worn, it is resurfaced and polished. It's this step that the chance of the details being removed is possible. I had no idea that worn dies were cleaned up. I thought they were used until they couldn't be used no more and that the die varieties like 3 legged buffalo were created from a fresh die.</p><p><br /></p><p>Learning is fun <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
