RE: Stop Buying First Strike Coins

Thanks @torch66, it goes to show how the industry use a well known term to fleece the public for additional premium when are is non. The 30 day rule is pretty loose, but as dies are replaced, this puts the first strike, fineness theory out of the conversation. Great knowledgeable post.

Thanks rollingthunder - Yep, the 30 day rule isn't even definable at the mint itself so a dealer can only state when they received it not necessarily when it was struck. Poor business practices in my opinion!
