The Dutch Mint will issue a 10 eurocoin with King Willem-Alexander.

There are different coins:
- 10 eurocoin UNC in coincard, 10 eurocoin BU in coincard, 10 eurocoin silver proof
- 20 eurocoin GOLD proof
- 50 eurocoin GOLD proof.

These coins are official eurocoins.

Issue-date: May

What's the difference between '10 eurocoin UNC in coincard' and '10 eurocoin BU in coincard'.

I would expect all coins to start off as BU.

In Europe UNC and BU are different:
UNC = Uncirculated
BU = Briliant Uncirculated

After the production the coin will fall in a bucket. You will have a UNC (it is possible that the coin will have a little scratch because of the falling)
If the coin after the production will be caught (and doesn't fall in a bucket) the coin will be BU (normaly the coin won't have scratches)

What ?

Are you saying that a BU coin with a scratch is graded UNC ?

As far as I know, "BU" coins are minted in a way that is different from the procedure for regular "unc" coins. This is, for example, how the British Royal Mint puts it: "Proof coins can be produced at a rate of between 50 and 100 an hour. Brilliant Uncirculated coins can be produced far faster â€" up to 300 a minute. Circulating coins can be produced more than twice as fast again, up to 750 coins a minute."
