<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1680213, member: 15929&quot;]Truly &quot;Uncirculated Coins&quot;..............never leave the US Mint.</p><p><br /></p><p>BUT, uncirculated does not mean that the coin hasn&#039;t been spent in circulation. What it means is that there is no visible &quot;wear&quot; on the coin as the term is used to describe the &quot;condition&quot; of the coin, not whether or not its been spent.</p><p><br /></p><p>Therefore, finger prints are acceptable as long as they are not too distracting. What I mean by that is, on uncirculated coins, finger prints may not be too obvious until the coin sits around for a while. The oils which &quot;cause&quot; the finger print, react with the coins surface causing the print to &quot;appear&quot;. This could occur after grading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
