True. But I think the definition of uncirculated has less to do whether it actually went into circulation and more if it has actual wear. Either...
Yes an MS coin can be found in change. Grading is based on a lot of things. And if a W quarter goes from the mint, to a bag, to a roll, straight...
I love token carvings like this. I have some cool Australian florins with carvings in them from the 5th Air Force and stuff. But cointalk won’t...
eBay wins I’m waiting to receive. The 1923 is a higher grade for the date. Only 5 or so graded higher. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

50?
My buddy went to the Singapore coin fair and was nice enough to bring me some gifts! A 2019 Mob of Roos coin with Merlion privy. First bullion...
