I love those heavily polished dies. Check it against this VAM-1H.

Cool !!!
Also a fan of die polish lines. I just grabbed a P$ with them on both sides myself.
Wow.. those both have a lot of die polish lines... I have not come across any like that, other than in pictures here on the forum. Thanks for showing us...Cheers, RickO
Very cool!

@AUandAG Can I see a pic of obv please
Not my coin, just had in my saved pics but as I recall it was a MS64, old green label PCGS. Thought it would be fun to see more die polishing lines on other coins.....reason for the post.

I like the excessive die polish on these
Collector, occasional seller
Dammit Todd. I want that one!!
Ah. Well then. I'll have to dig out some my better ones..
The Morgan is ridiculous
Here's a couple Peace dollars with unique die polishing I have sitting on my desk at the moment. Especially the 26s VAM 1Z.. I got her for $14 because the dealer thought it was eraser rub PMD
Cool Peace but is that an S? Looks suspiciously like a 1926p.

I believe and 1883-CC PCGS 64PL
1915 Barber Quarter PCGS MS63. The pics don't do the die filing justice. Not die polish, die file lines. I got it pretty cheap. Great for showing people the difference between hairlines and die polish/filing.
Here's another 1879-S VAM-1B2 I acquired today. The die file lines on the obverse were so heavy the dealer I bought it from first thought that someone had polished up the obverse. Then I told him that the coin had not been cleaned, rather it was from a die that had been scrubbed pretty harshly. The obverse has really nice 5 inch mirrors and the reverse is a semi-PL.
Two different coins
