<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hoky77, post: 4277940, member: 97374&quot;]Coin A is probably from a later die state than coin B . The rim break at 6 shows that the die has been around for awhile and probably has seen a few polishings. I think that many times features that are softened by die maintenance are mistakenly attributed as weak strikes. Off the top of my head I believe that 1916 was the first year of the two feather variety which was a product of excessive die polishing and not a weak strike. This is the kind of stuff that makes a TPGs job tough.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
