  Ignorance It is a real shame that PCGS is the one behind this hosing of the uninformed public. The "First Strike" designation is meaningless, but is playing off of a real numismatic term which does have meaning.

  Not really. A lot of the value out there is numbers not the quality. There are going to be less First Strikes than the other coins.

  That means PCGS gets to make their own rarity. Why not just make one and charge about a million bucks for it?
  
  Thats my take on it anyway

  Every man is a self made man.

  hmmm i'm a little lost too in "first strikes" and 80,000 of um.....i'd think after a die strikes it's first coin all others are become numerically higher.so if the mint uses 100 dies for a years denomination then there can only be "100" first strikes released during the duration of that year.not 80,000 in the first month...and to all who bash such logic...lol go ahead

  everything in life is but merely on loan to us by our appreciation....lose your appreciation and see

  I think submitting for 1st strikes stop after the end of January.
