<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 688688, member: 66&quot;]Another thing you have to understand is what the mint means when they talk about coins (at least internally)&nbsp; What we would call business strike uncirculated or Mint State coins they call circulated or circulation coins.&nbsp; When they say uncirculated what they mean are non-proof coins intended for placement in special sets such as mint sets or their &quot;Uncirculated silver eagles&quot;, the ones with the W on them.&nbsp;&nbsp; When they say proof they mean the same thing we do.</p><p><br /></p><p>The term uncirculated confuses a lot of new collectors because it has nothing to do with whether or not the coin has ever circulated.&nbsp; It simply means that the coin shows no trace of wear.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
