<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2168326, member: 17665"]For a long time I've seen YN's struggle with numismatic terminology. Way too many acronyms in todays society and as the saying goes " I can remember it all, not just all at once". So I figured it would be a great source of reference to list as many as possible acronyms and properly name which/what each one stands for. For example, V.G.=Very Good, ANA=American Numismatic Society, etc.</p><p> The rules-</p><p>#1-You must be 18 or younger to participate</p><p>#2-List and properly describe as complete a list as possible of every acronym you can find.</p><p>#3-Do NOT let this interfere with your home work.</p><p> Pretty simple overall. Hit the Red Book, a grading guide and an error book and may the best YN win.</p><p> Thought I forgot this? The prize will be 20 Brilliant Uncirculated (B.U.)

So I figured it would be a great source of reference to list as many as possible acronyms and properly name which/what each one stands for. For example, V.G.=Very Good, ANA=American Numismatic Society, etc. The rules- #1-You must be 18 or younger to participate #2-List and properly describe as complete a list as possible of every acronym you can find. #3-Do NOT let this interfere with your home work. Pretty simple overall. Hit the Red Book, a grading guide and an error book and may the best YN win. Thought I forgot this? The prize will be 20 Brilliant Uncirculated (B.U.)
