<p>[QUOTE="coop, post: 985427, member: 17656"]I always view errors as a one time happening. Varieties are created in the dies when hubbed. Die wear/fatigue/polishing as a normal part of the life of a die. So a Die scratch/chip/crack/clash/gouges/polishings are just part of the normal life of the die. Many copies of these are made in varing degrees during the life of the die. Die varieties are created on the die not something that develops with age/die use/die abrasion/over polishing. But an error is usually a one of a kind happening.</p><p>indent:</p><p><a href="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/coop49/1980_Indent_Strike_Still_Lookin.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink"

But the microscopic things to me don't count as errors. (Chips, cracks, breaks) But there are a few exceptions. Extra long die cracks covering 75% of the surface of the die. The rest are just a normal part of the dies life. I consider errors are being able to be seen by the naked eye.

Die wear/fatigue/polishing as a normal part of the life of a die. So a Die scratch/chip/crack/clash/gouges/polishings are just part of the normal life of the die. Many copies of these are made in varing degrees during the life of the die. Die varieties are created on the die not something that develops with age/die use/die abrasion/over polishing. But an error is usually a one of a kind happening. indent: [url]http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/coop49/1980_Indent_Strike_Still_Lookin.jpg[/url]

[url]http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/coop49/Struck_Through_Cloth_Dime__IMG.jpg[/url] Cuds may be part of the dies life, but I still think they are errors though. But the microscopic things to me don't count as errors. (Chips, cracks, breaks) But there are a few exceptions. Extra long die cracks covering 75% of the surface of the die. The rest are just a normal part of the dies life. I consider errors are being able to be seen by the naked eye. I know I've forgotten other things, but this post is getting too long to tell what yet.[/QUOTE]
