I have some uncirculated coins that appear to be weakly struck. The details on them are not as clear and defined as I would expect from a coin that hasn't been in circulation. Is this a common issue with uncirculated coins?

Some collectors struggle to differentiate between a weakly struck coin and a circulated one.

A weak strike occurs when a coin is not properly minted, leading to a lack of detail.

Conversely, an uncirculated coin retains its original mint luster and detail.
