    OK another newbee question. Is this weak 4 due to a grease clog? I've seen a couple around recently but no reason as to why the 4 is weak. As normal I would appreciate any info.

    Very common

    Yes, this is very common. Could be grease filled, weak strike, planchet imperfect but most likely what you said - the area in the die where the "4" was was filled with debris.

    I believe it is a filled die.
