<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1554382, member: 112&quot;]KIMAR - it&#039;s fairly simple really. MS65 is a fairly high grade, while PF65 is a low grade. MS67 is a high grade, while PF67 is a mid to average grade. MS69 is a very high grade, almost unheard of for most coins. While PF69 is probably the most common grade there is.</p><p><br /></p><p>You see, Proofs and business strikes are completely different things, and while the grade numbers may be the same, they most definitely do not mean the same thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as others have mentioned, everything changes yet again depending on which type of coins you are talking about. For example, modern coins (defined as post &#039;65) as compared to older coins from the 1800&#039;s and early 1900&#039;s. Or bullion coins as compared to business strikes. Or commemorative coins as compared to business strikes.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are many different types of coins, and depending on what the specific coin is the same grade number may be considered to be high, or low.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
