Now while this may be true in some cases, I have often felt that claiming a coin was weakly struck is used as an excuse to assign the higher grade than the coin really deserves. | I agree that its often used as an excuse, espacially when it comes to circulated coins. But it is a factor that needs to be taken into consideration on things like Walkers. I've seen hundreds of them in PCGS or NGC holders graded MS65+ that alot of people would grade as AU because they don't know about the strike.
