<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mark Feld, post: 673577, member: 11467&quot;]A weak strike can certainly negatively impact a coin&#039;s grade. However, graders usually (or at least, should) consider the strike with respect to other examples of the date and mint in question.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And the 1944-S Walker is known to exhibit a typically soft strike. Thus more tolerance is granted for its soft strike than there would be for a date/mint which is known for a strong strike. Not everyone agrees with the aforementioned nuance of grading, but like it or not, it&#039;s reality.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
