<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1186258, member: 66"]A SEVERE grease fill can bring a premium. For example if most of the design on one or both sides is missing due to grease filling. (Those type of pieces are often mistakenly identified as "die set up" pieces or extremely low pressure strikes. The true die set up or low pressure strikes will tend to be strongest in the center areas and will NOT have well formed rims or edges. The grease filled on the other hand has MORE material between the dies so even though the design doesn't strike up they will normally have well defined rims and sharp edges. And a low pressure strike will always be weak on both obv and rev. If the detail is only weak on one or the other it's a greaser.) A severe grease fill can bring a premium but nothing like the much rarer very low pressure strikes or die set up pieces.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
