Could someone tell me what the abbreviations used on this forum mean? (And I mean coin-related abbreviations, not general online ones)

Lately, not so good for me. But it varies from bank to bank and region to region. These are the clear plastic srapped rolls. They are the easiest to open. |

the W mark is not used on coins intended for circulation. its for uncirculated bullion coins i believe. i have 2006-W and 2007-W silver eagles. it was also used on a roosevelt dime in 1996. like i said though, not meant for circulation. |
