<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cremebrule, post: 1476302, member: 35227&quot;]Argh! The many mis-used terms of Mint State coins. Seriously, &quot;Gem&quot;, &quot;Brilliant&quot;, and &quot;Choice&quot; Uncirculated are thrown around so much on the web concerning any grade from AU to MS67 I no longer have a strong conviction which describes which. I heard though that Brilliant = 62-63, Choice = 64-65, and Gem = 65+.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the case of my coin, it really doesn&#039;t matter. After all, woodies are respected for their &quot;woodiness&quot;, right? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; Not their luster (Though, on a side note, my coin actually does exhibit quite a bit of cartwheel luster. The grains just cover it up). Bottom line is you both like the coin <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Who cares if people call it BU or just simply UNC? If I were selling it on eBay I woulc call it Gem BU and watch those bidiots go crazy over it :devil:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
