<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iGradeMS70, post: 1361613, member: 29109&quot;]Since proof coins, back in the day, were issued either individually or, nowadays, in sets, TPGs don&#039;t take into account circulation wear being present unless the wear is extremely noticable. I suppose if a proof coin did make its way into circulation, and God knows they have, TPGs use the same grading standards they would for circulation strikes of the same series. </p><p><br /></p><p>And, say you have a unique pattern coin, the professional graders would used their acquired skills to examine the coin to see just how much wear the coin developed in circulation and what numerical grade would suit the coin best.</p><p><br /></p><p>-Brian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
