  1. A weakly struck coin is due to the dies becoming worn away slightly, and this causes the struck coin to become less 'sharp' so the design looks in low relief, and to the untrained eye can be deceptive. Wear is due to flattening from circulation, try to compare coins in high grades and it will become clearer. I hope this helps, it is difficult to explain!

  2. Don't do it in haste.I don't like slabs and have never slabbed a coin but the slabs I have have remained slabbed. What is the coin and what grade has been attributed? Lots of things to consider.
