Uncirculated coin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An Uncirculated coin can refer to two things:

  • A coin that is not released to the public (ie not supposed to be used for money[although it has an actual value]) but is available through the U.S. Mint at the US Mint website (if you live in the U.S. Otherwise at your country's mint website) or through your local numismatic (near you). Most uncirculated coins of this type are either commemorative coins; gold, silver, or platinum bullion coins(see picture below); actual uncirculated rolls or bags of coins(see next bullet and picture below); special coinage sets; or proof sets(see pictures below).
