<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBK, post: 52957, member: 1101&quot;]This is sort of similar (in reverse) to the issue of proof coins.&nbsp; Whereas a proof is a proof is a proof, no matter how worn or damnaged, and UNC coin is UNC no matter wher you fond it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Uncirculated is a grade, not a description.&nbsp; If a coin shows no wear, it is graded Unc.&nbsp; (or MS60 or above).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I understand how some people consider Uncirculated to be a description of where the coin has been, but when the coin is graded that becomes irrelevent.&nbsp; Or, to put it another way, if you buy an Unc. coin from the Mint and then trade it to a fellow collector, doesn&#039;t it also become &quot;circulated&quot; in the same sense?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
