<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ddddd, post: 7638441, member: 22377&quot;]The general answer is &quot;no&quot;...see below from the US Mint:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;The United States Mint has not designated any coins or products as “first strikes” or “first releases,” nor do we track the order in which we mint coins during their production. The United States Mint strives to produce coins of consistently high quality throughout the course of production.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.usmint.gov/news/consumer-alerts/consumer/first-strike-designations" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.usmint.gov/news/consumer-alerts/consumer/first-strike-designations" rel="nofollow">https://www.usmint.gov/news/consumer-alerts/consumer/first-strike-designations</a></p><p><br /></p><p>-----</p><p>The &quot;first strike&quot; designation you see on grading labels is what [USER=18157]@yakpoo[/USER] mentioned above. It just means the coin was issued within a certain period of time after the official release (usually 30 days).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
