<p>[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 633216, member: 19165"]I'm not as familiar with the SLQ as I am with my series, the Franklin. This is one of the drawbacks of the strike designations, and I have talked about it many times. There is one small detail that is looked at, but the rest of the coin is ignored. Liberty might have an ear, but her shield might look like this piece (which is far more of a focal point, and should be required to have a much stronger strike than her ear, in my opinion). On the Franklin, the bell lines might be present, but I also look for the wisps of hair over his ear, and Pass and Stow, to be clearly present. When the entire coin is struck well - then it is is worth a significant premium to me. When just one tiny little bit is well struck but the rest of the coin is weak, thats for the lemmings. </p><p><br /></p><p>Which is why I took care to qualify my statements with "in my opinion."[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
