Can someone post a pic of an Early Die state Lincoln Cent that had a weak strike?
Or a link to an article that differentiates between these two things? I can spot a late die state coin when it's obvious but I'm trying to get a better understanding of weak strikes. Most of the articles I've come across talk about Die states or strike, but not comparing the two.

I just want to see a weak strike on an Early Die State coin.
Thanks
Mitch
