Die polishing

What do they use to polish out clashes and stuff on the dies at the mint these days? 80 grit?

All 4 shots are of the same coin, it is like this over the whole surface on both sides.

Probably the same stuff they used back in 1921.

What mint did yours?

These are from the San Francisco mint.

ps I love Die Polish Lines

There certainly doesn't seem to be a method to their madness.

This is from an 88 Cent I posted a month or so ago
