[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 13298274, member: 19165"]I think we agree more thank you think. The 1921 Peace is a perfect example of this - because it is so very rarely found perfectly struck. We can imagine what a fully struck piece would look like. The details would be full, and bold, and rounded. But don't usually find them that way. If Uncirculated, the unstuck areas will have a *very* different texture than circulated flattened areas. The difference is extreme enough that you don't really need to know what a fully struck Peace dollar should look like... the texture of the metal will tell you. This piece was not fully struck... but this piece was not fully struck and has wear. And yes, I agree 100%... the fields are an important piece of this puzzle, and are neglected far too often.[/QUOTE]
