<p>[QUOTE=&quot;joecoincollect, post: 2151184, member: 71338&quot;]A strict definition is actually the opposite. Your qualifier, &quot;for use as money,&quot; is not accurate. A coin is strictly a piece of metal or other material (eg plastic) issued and denominated by a country, that CAN be used as money. A strict definition means coins don&#039;t have to be spent, not that they should. That they should is your opinion. Proof US coins are after all coins in every sense of the word yet they aren&#039;t typically spent. Maybe a better qualifier is that all these issues have a technical or legal status as coins in country. NCLTs are strictly coins but many collectors deride this status[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
