I am familiar with this orange peel effect as it is pretty common on tired die jeffersons.

But was the die actually pickled in this case? If so, why?

...just a guess here, bob. i think there was some type of chemical reaction between the copper over the

zinc planchet. maybe a step (rinse?) was missed that might have resulted in the blistering. but why only

one side, i don't know.

I was just joking. I always get a craving for pickled orange peels around 4 in the afternoon.
