<p>[QUOTE="Newcoinboy2018, post: 3082545, member: 93806"]As a side note to your conversations above, it’s very surprising to me that some numismatists don’t believe as a die is used during different minting seasons for the same coin, that second or third season minting strikes using the same die may not have the same relief displayed before the die breaks or deteriorates. After all, this is why they have different minting seasons for such coins. Just a thought on how some do and don’t value the meaning of such striking terms.</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought I would post a photo because I don’t plan on obtaining first strike designation, or even a grading option. I have all the documentation I need to prove both first strike and mint condition. More than likely, I won’t even be the one to redeem them. They will be passed on to my children who will certainly believe when and where the coins were purchased, and whether or not they will want to have them professionally graded considering they have never been taken out of those capsules. At the end of the day it is simply a matter of trust. Some people need a world of ways in securing trust with their possessions. While some people can be content with the trust they have already secured.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
