<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 892709, member: 24633&quot;]There is a difference between PF70 and MS70. The Mint&#039;s proof program has advanced to the point that PF70 Ultra Cameo and&nbsp; PF70 Deep Cameo are produced with great consistency. It&#039;s not that simple when it comes to business strikes, and we&#039;re not talking about the satin finish coins that are being produced for the Mint Sets since 2005. Special care, almost as great as the care used for processing the proof coins, is given in the production and handling of all the coins that go into the Mint Sets. Finding MS70&#039;s in the Mint Sets is like finding tadpoles in a pond. That isn&#039;t the case for business strikes. They come off the production line like rocks on a conveyor belt in a quarry and are dumped into huge collection bins in bulk for transport to the bagging and rolling facility. Anyone who can find a post-2004 MS70 business strike will have a true rarity. I searched bags from 2005-2007 and the highest grade I&#039;ve ever gotten was MS68.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
