<p>[QUOTE=&quot;talkcoin, post: 1697422, member: 38842&quot;]by bodied I meant body-bagged, which was a term used before TPG&#039;s slabbed &#039;Genuine&#039; Details coins. They would simply refuse to grade and slab a coin if it were a problem coin (i.e. counterfeit, improperly cleaned, whizzed, artificial toning, tooled, damaged or filed rims, environmental damage, or any PMD metal movement) and return to sender in a 2x2 flip. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think Hobo nailed it with the minting process in explaining those marks, as I have seen MS coins slabbed with them. Hence, using a coin counting machine (as I guessed in my above post) would result in a coin being circulated and therefore would not be intentionally slabbed as MS.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
