[QUOTE="Moen1305, post: 812619, member: 2544"]I don't know if anybody can really answer your questions. You may just end up with a lot of opinions. I do know that the "First day release" designation is sort of new fad meant to differentiate coins from "First Strikes". Same coins, different designation. Both designations are somewhat controversial in coin collecting circles. If you have the rolls stamped within the first 30 days of the first release I understand that they can be labeled with the "First Strike" designation. I think the early release sales were pre-sales without the coins actually in hand. I was at the Springfield release on Feb 11th. People rushed over the the Cook street post office to have these cancellations put on each roll. Once these rolls are cracked open, how is it that the paper labels are of any value anyway? I just don't quite get that. I think that the theory is that the first runs of these coins will produce the most 69's and 70's because the dies are still new.[/QUOTE]
