I have some MS coins and I'm wondering if they are uncirculated. I've heard that MS coins are typically in mint condition and have never been used in circulation, but I want to confirm this.

Another term is Brilliant Uncirculated (BU), which emphasizes the coin's pristine condition and brilliance.

Mint State (MS) is also used to describe such coins, highlighting their original state as they left the mint.

When a numerical grade is applied to an uncirculated coin, it is typically accompanied by the abbreviation MS.
