<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 221150, member: 112&quot;]Not gonna say it&#039;s impossible, but it seems unlikely to me in this case. Yes the high point of the reverse is just above the shield. But look at the lower half of the reverse, the talons are one of the key grading areas and they are quite well struck and retain good detail. And look at the feathers of the arrow - almost smooth. A similar thing with the lower feathers of the eagle. On the right they are well struck and have good detail, while on the left they do not - again almost smooth. </p><p><br /></p><p>Normally with a coin of weak strike it is the high points that do not get metal fill, that I could understand. But when a higher point fills the adjacent lower points must also be filled and have similar detail. When the lower points do not, I can only attribute it to unusual wear - not a weak strike. And the color in all of these areas is enough different to make me think wear - not weak strike. (at least based on the pics)</p><p><br /></p><p>We don&#039;t disagree often Mike, but on this one we do pal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
