Tooling Evidence Screen
Summarize caller-observed indicators for tooling evidence screen without treating the result as conclusive.
Description
Tooling review examines evidence of mechanically altered design details.
Tooling review examines evidence of mechanically altered design details. This screen organizes supplied line, texture, contour and displacement observations.1
Summarize caller-observed indicators for tooling evidence screen without treating the result as conclusive.
When to use Tooling Evidence Screen
Use this tool to summarize caller-observed indicators for tooling evidence screen without treating the result as conclusive.
Prepare documented records or observations for the specific coin or issue context. Enter the required labels, reference table or evidence flags and retain the supporting catalog and examination notes for interpretation.
How to use Tooling Evidence Screen and understand its results
- Prepare documented records or observations for the specific coin or issue context. Enter the required labels, reference table or evidence flags and retain the supporting catalog and examination notes for interpretation.
- Enter engravedLines, missingFlowTexture, recontouredDevices, metalDisplacement using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read indicatorCount, indicators, riskLevel. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| engravedLines | Engraved or chased lines | boolean | Required |
| missingFlowTexture | Missing flow texture | boolean | Required |
| recontouredDevices | Recontoured devices | boolean | Required |
| metalDisplacement | Visible metal displacement | boolean | Required |
Set each observation flag according to available evidence. Count true flags equally; return count, their field IDs in configuration order and riskLevel. Two or more flags produce high, one caution and zero none.
indicatorCount=number of true flags; 0→none, 1→caution, 2–4→high Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| indicatorCount | Indicator count | integer; minimum: 0 |
| indicators | Triggered indicators | list of string |
| riskLevel | Risk level | string; one of "none", "caution", "high" |
{
"input": {
"engravedLines": true,
"missingFlowTexture": true,
"recontouredDevices": false,
"metalDisplacement": false
},
"output": {
"indicatorCount": 2,
"indicators": [
"engravedLines",
"missingFlowTexture"
],
"riskLevel": "high"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
The tool does not inspect an image, distinguish original die details or authenticate a coin. Observations and their interpretation remain caller responsibilities.
Numeric inputs must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.
