<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 974522, member: 112&quot;]So you&#039;re telling me that those off center strikes are well struck because the dies are not aligned ? Sorry pal - I aint buyin that. There is no off center strike that can possibly be as well struck as a weakly struck coin where the entire planchet is between the dies. It simply can&#039;t be because there is only half as much metal between the dies.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah there are plenty of coins that have a weak strike. And some are known for certain areas. But the marks are not left over planchet marks - they are contact marks that came after the strike was long over with.</p><p><br /></p><p>And yes, there are plenty of Lincoln cents without a single mark on the O.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
