<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mlov43, post: 3153284, member: 16729&quot;]It seems that many collectors of U.S. coins are concerned about the &quot;FSB,&quot; &quot;FBL&quot; and &quot;Full Steps&quot; designations with our graded Mercs, Franklins and Jeffersons. </p><p><br /></p><p>Isn&#039;t this all a result of poor coin design or engraving?&nbsp; When striking the coins, a single blow from the dies at normal striking force didn&#039;t &quot;bring up&quot; the design fully on these coins.&nbsp; Weren&#039;t the design flaws in these coins the result of having an area of high-relief on the opposite side of the coins?&nbsp;&nbsp; It seems so to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
