Question for Large Cent Experts

Shoedog

Anyone know if it is typical for 1857 Newcomb-4 cents to have weakly struck stars?

I know 1857 N-1 generally come with stars 12 and 13 weak,but I haven't seen many MS N-4's

Also if anyone with experience in this field cares to elaborate on strike characteristics on these I'm interseted in learning.
Thanks!

This a very broad subject- could you narrow it down a bit. mike
