<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark_h, post: 236107, member: 3726&quot;]Here are my thoughts on &quot;weak strike&quot; - remember this only my opinion.&nbsp; First telling the difference between weak strike and wear is hard.&nbsp; It is obvious on this coin that it is not wear.&nbsp; Second - if MS64 requires in other dates of the series more definition to be 64, do not lower the requirements just because of weak strike.&nbsp; To me this inflates the grades on the coins - for example, just so more 64&#039;s are around.&nbsp; So to me the 79 is correctly graded and the 88(weak strike or not) is over graded.&nbsp; BUT I STILL LIKE both coins as they are.&nbsp; I think on the 1909-S people say &quot;weak strike&quot; way too much - so what if the best obtainable grade could possibly be MS63.&nbsp; Remember this is my opinion only.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
