<p>[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 4602073, member: 73995"]I think that you are missing the fact that dies begin to deteriorate at the first strike, add in striking pressure, mechanical failures, and differences in each planchet and you will find that business strikes were never meant to be fancy/perfect, and without flaws. This is much different than Proof sets which are struck twice from specially prepared dies and handled carefully before being packaged. Mint sets are taken from bulk bags. Every coin that falls into the ballistic bags has the potential to drop the grade of a coin. This is what create conditional rarity's.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
