    Just wondering: are these typically struck lightly? I feel most of the MS ones I am looking at are flat and lacking lots of detail. Thoughts and knowledge appreciated!

    Not sure about that but it's by far one of the nicest designs in US coins.
    Just look at it.....:D

    Not a specialist in Walkers, but, IMO probably the worst strike in the entire series...regardless of what people say about the 41 S.

    A beautiful design but most are weakly struck.
