[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 3231063, member: 19250"]Orange peel surfaces at first at a distance isn't a bad look, but will agree the closer you look the effect looses something . Perhasp it not a natural look which at first draws us in,then as we examine the specimen closer ,and for a longer peroid of time it looses all the effects that first drew us to the coin. My question as since this is not in my wheelhouse what causes this? Thinking about it my best guess would be medal flow or platchet medal. As if the medal was being pushed or pulled at a temperature not hot enough to allow the medal to move smoothly. Again only speculation on my part as to cause. I've seen this effect more so on nickels ,but have seen it on other series as well. It maybe because the hardness and thickness of a nickel that it is more prevalent.[/QUOTE]
