<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 231234, member: 8247&quot;]I noticed with both nickels and half dollars as I search those regularly, that the strikes had more contour, but less detail.&nbsp; All the late nineties and especially the ones in the last few years, the strike has been extremely flat, but contains much more subtle detail.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I wonder if they are making a similar mistake like they have in the past with coins like the buffalo nickel where there is not enought contrast for key elements like the date.&nbsp; In 30 years, are we going to be looking at coins from the 2000-2007 era and see nothing but flat discs of metal because all the detail wore off?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
