It means the coin possesses some qualities of an uncirculated example (good), but that someone cleaned it for whatever reason (bad). I always hate...
I pick up 50 rolls tomorrow and another 25 on Thursday. That will complete my year. I'll post totals this weekend. Wish me luck on a strong finish!
RickieB, Hey man, I do it all the time, mostly at the general store near the entrance to my neighborhood. In my life I've known my share of...
Willie, Reeeeeel nice pull on that Barber! Congratulations!
I once won a raw common Morgan in an eBay auction where the description read something like "MS-64+++++." The pictures were OK, but not good...
I bought a few Double Eagles when they could be readily had for as little as $450 certified in VF-EF and $525 or so in MS. I've watched the asking...
I plan to provide a summary so you guys can tell me how you think I did. Based on the posts I've read in this and other threads I can already tell...

Awesome finds Moen, and that Barber is about the coolest thing I've ever heard of coming from a roll of Kennedys. I always hoped I'd see it happen...
Are you familiar with "Coin Safe" tubes? Think they are safe for my rolls?
Sorry, I edited my post- didn't think you'd answer so fast! Thank you for the help. I really appreciate it. Think I'll order some tonight.
