Merc Man Pillar of the Community United States 561 Posts	Posted 04/14/2012 08:36 am General question about grading: If a coin is pulled from a proof set and placed in a holder and the person that removes the coin is careful not to damage the coin in the process wouldn't it be safe to assume that the coin would grade at least an MS-60? I am very new to the grading piece of the hobby as most all of my collecting was done when I was younger and just pulling stuff out of circulation. Thanks for all of the help.

Merc Man Pillar of the Community United States 561 Posts	Posted 04/14/2012 09:30 am OK, I will bite. What is the distinction between PR and PF? I checked the glossary and didn't see anything other than the PR for "Proof". Thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff
