[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3514145, member: 46237"]A common sense definition. Mint state being [I]the state as produced when minted[/I]. Does an MS60-62 really look like a [I]mint state[/I] coin to you? Everyone knows these are coins that were circulated and/or mishandled. What if we insert another grade descriptor between 55 and 63? Something like this: Mint State (MS) 63-70 Virtually Uncirculated (VU) 58-62 Almost Uncirculated (AU) 50-55[/QUOTE]
