A "first strike" coin typically refers to a coin that was minted early in the production run using fresh dies, which can result in a sharper and more detailed appearance. To determine if a coin is a first strike, you can check for certification from a reputable grading service like the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) or the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), which often label such coins as "First Strike" or "Early Release" if they meet the criteria. Additionally, some mints provide documentation or packaging indicating a coin's status as a first strike.
