<p>[QUOTE="Mac McDonald, post: 6324680, member: 117420"]I always thought they were all uncirculated no matter how dinged up they were...maybe I missed something back then. I know there was a card or clarifying statement included about how bad some may be and that there were no guarantees, etc. Regardless of the heavy bag marks and such, uncirculated/MS is uncirculated/MS...right...? So if they all came from the mint vaults/storage...no matter after how many years...not collected/returned from banks or elsewhere that had received them back from some kind of circulation...they should still be in the category of uncirculated...albeit definitions do change over time in how they're used or interpreted/applied, and maybe that's what's going on. Maybe there are some using "worn" simply to indicate heavy bag marks, worn die specimens, etc. If certain GSA holders only indicated 'Silver Dollar,' but either the card indicated uncirculated or they appeared as such despite the marks (no wear, just marks), you may be better let a good TPG decide (hopefully on a good day, graders in good moods, etc.). Don't they grade them in their OGP holders, now...?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
