<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 236287, member: 112&quot;]That&#039;s exactly what I am saying. Not all coins are graded based on the same criteria when it comes to strike. There are many cases where a coin from a given year and mint is known to be weakly struck and they are not graded the same as coins from different years or mints that were not weakly struck. A good example would be Morgan dollars - just about any Morgan from the early years and the O mint is weakly struck. Rarely are the hair details all there on the O mint coins, the hair is downright flat in many cases. So flat in fact that if it were an S mint coin of the same year that the coin would be graded XF due to wear while the O mint coin is graded as MS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
