KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/10/2007 2:47 pm Nice find! Did the seller know what they had? Guess not! Just curious--what are the differences between the "strong" and "weak" O/S varieties? Report this Post to the Staff
MorgansRmine Pillar of the Community United States 1219 Posts	Posted 12/10/2007 3:03 pm Strong, the middle of S comes even with top surface of the O. Much thicker piece of S showing. Weak, the S tends to sink below the surface and narrows, as die wears down. Report this Post to the Staff
