Thank you Peter for pointing out the importance of condition in strike collecting. Few have shown the astute point of view to even recognize condition unless there is a very visible flaw.
You seem to be one of the leading strike collectors from what I have read on this board.
Perhaps now the many readers will realize the value of independent grading of strikes. This also prevent strikes from being removed since they are permanently sealed. My hats off to you Peter for making us all aware of the need for
strike condition evaluation.
