[QUOTE="Rick-Mira, post: 1123755, member: 29687"]What I have noticed is terms are used loosely .. to me brilliant / uncirculated is close to how it left the mint (how close ?) MS = uncirculated ,, possible toning loss of gleam but if at all very lightly scuffed // some coins go through coin roll machine dumped into containers though others better cared for // Mint Sets If it has changed many hands before it reached me but never used as regular currency then its Almost Uncirculated /// shows a little more surface markings Lets say I'm selling you a Harley and tell you the paint and chrome is Brilliant .. would you expect dings and scratches ? even a Brilliant Diamond ? or one more .. Lets say I'm playing a trumpet and miss a note .. not Brilliant any more in sound quality :) even with the pictures as poor as they are .. you can clearly see where to coins have been hit .. I assure you they glow/shine nicely The "Damage" was more my concern ...... So in short The best way to buy coins IS face to face UNLESS You get the option to send back for a full refund if they don't meet your personal Standards ???[/QUOTE]
