<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 2356469, member: 26302"]The term comes from bags of Morgan dollars. When coins are in a bag, during movement they tend to hit each other and make little dings on the coins. "Baggy" comes from the word bagmarks, which means the coin looks like it has some little marks on it, not from circulation or damage, but from contact with other coins. It could be on the plastic, but it just looked like some little nicks in the fields of the second coin. Any little hit like that by definition would keep it from being MS70.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
