<p>[QUOTE="DJP7x0s, post: 455908, member: 5336"]Some dates have nice strong Bold Strikes, while others have very mushy strikes. Depression era coins commonly have mushy strikes. The mint just let the dies go too far gone, probably because the cent is so mass produced. </p><p>The coin Phoenix posted, is a rather nice example for the date. Sure the strike is mushy, but better than most for the date. I personally think that is a beautiful coin. </p><p>As far as it being cracked out..... Well....... Maybe that was a bad idea, but Im sure Phoenix wanted to be able to put the coin in his album. He also mentioned that he wanted to take care of some verdigis or whatever was on the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
