2013 $2 Orange Peels

[Fulvio]

Now that I'm going through the standard designs from the Coronation chase, I'm seeing a lot of these with orange peel on parts of the field, mostly on the obverse (hammer die).

Despite Trout poo-pooing them as PMD on CCF last year, that's clearly not the case. I'm thinking worn dies resulting in incomplete metal flow perhaps?

And more to the point, does this make them more or less desirable?
