<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 838398, member: 21705&quot;]Brilliant is a puffery word with little meaning. Any coin over&nbsp; F-15 is Brilliant to some people. Uncirculated USED to have some meaning, but it has expanded to cover practically all AU coins with luster.</p><p><br /></p><p>MS to me is a technical term, though it&#039;s my understanding that many MS60 - MS 62 would have been AU in the 60s before the market grading took hold. There have always been high grade circulated coins with more value than the poorest MS due to condition, rather than wear. It just didn&#039;t used to get rolled into the Grade until you reached full MS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
