<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 20118, member: 112&quot;]To the best of my knowledge - there have been no circulation type coins graded as MS70 by NGC, PCGS or ANACS. It may be possible that ICG has graded some as MS70 - but I&#039;ve never seen one. Even those coins taken from Mint sets do not reach that grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now Proof coins - that&#039;s another story. There have been many coins graded as PF70 by all of the major companies with the possible exception of ANACS. I don&#039;t think I ever saw one of those.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coins that I have seen graded as MS70 were not struck for circulation - they were either commemorative coins or bullion coins such as Silver or Gold Eagles. But it should be noted that these coins are not produced in the same manner as coins struck for circulation. They are handled very carefully for the most part and this is what permits a few to achieve this grade. But even among these - the grade is not handed out too often.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
