For those chocolate browns, it&#039;s not always so easy to tell the difference between wear and incomplete striking. Especially when someone went through the trouble of darkening the slightly lighter colored areas which are worn. </p><p><br /></p><p>Still, as a general rule, your method is one that every collector should learn about.
