<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 103702, member: 112"]Yes, many Peace dollars were weakly struck. But as a general rule the '23 was one of the better years for strike. I think this one in particular is weak on the reverse because of the obverse die breaking. But the weak strike had nothing to do with my opinion as to grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>The devices on Peace dollars are not frosty like they are on Morgans. So what I would normally attribute as a break in luster from bag marks on the device of a Morgan doesn't get the same allowance on Peace dollars. Normally it takes a bit more than 2 coins rubbing together in a bag to produce those shiny spots on Peace dollars. All the same, I could be wrong. As I said, need to see the coin in hand to be sure.</p><p><br /></p><p>But any way ya look at it - a cool coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
