It might be helpful zane if you clarified that the definition you are using for First Strike is the definition that grading companies use as a marketing tool - not the definition that the numismatic community or the US Mint uses. There is a huge difference between the two definitions.
According to the grading companies a first strike is any of coins shipped in the first month of availability.
According to the US Mint, and the rest of us, a first strike is the first coin struck with a new pair of dies.
