<p>[QUOTE="fiddlehead, post: 4611518, member: 31286"]Well, I don't know folks, but I have always assumed that the grade had to do with the condition of wear - at least for circulated coins - and that the original strike was irrelevant to the grade - again, for circulated coins. But while I seldom look at MS graded coins and rarely find them attractive, I guess I always assumed that strike - and/or other original mintage flaws would be a factor in MS grades - e.g., could a coin with a poor strike ever be an ms70?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
