Walking Liberty, Franklin, Kennedy, Mercury, Barber and Standing Liberty are different series, not interchangeable labels for any old silver coin. A mixed-denomination offering may include more than one design. Face value totals the denominations of the coins; it does not state a retail price or an equal number of troy ounces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct format:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListed metal amount:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.715 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFineness or alloy:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90% silver composition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMint or maker attribution:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States Mint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish or condition:\u003c\/strong\u003e About Uncirculated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90AUMD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUnderstanding the metal content\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFV means face value: it adds the original denominations of the coins in the lot. One face-value dollar can be formed by ten dimes, four quarters or two half dollars, but a mixed lot does not promise a particular combination unless stated. Circulation wear can affect the remaining metal in old coins. A lot’s listed bullion amount is therefore not the same thing as its face value or its number of pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFinish and condition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAU means About Uncirculated and describes a lightly circulated condition category. It is different from a Mint State designation and should not be silently converted into a specific certified number. The actual surface preservation of a historic coin remains distinct from the amount of precious metal it contains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePreserving the product\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreserving the surface and the original identifying information helps retain the product’s physical history. Handle an unencapsulated collectible by its edges where appropriate and avoid polishing or abrasive cleaning. Keep a certified holder or stated assay package intact when retaining its identification matters. A brighter surface created by cleaning is not the same thing as a higher original condition grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial, design and numismatic identity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA product’s history is carried by several different kinds of information. The issuing or manufacturing name explains its origin, the design identifies its subject, the metal specification describes its material and the condition language describes its preservation. A date can connect the piece with a particular program or historical period without proving that it is rare. These features remain meaningful together even when two offerings contain similar amounts of precious metal. Keeping them distinct provides a more accurate description of the actual object.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eReading the coin as a manufactured object\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe obverse and reverse are the two principal sides of a coin. Raised design elements are called devices, while the surrounding open areas are fields. Dies transfer the intended image to a prepared metal blank during striking. Those production terms help explain why design, strike and later surface wear are separate subjects. A weakly expressed detail can relate to manufacture, while circulation wear reflects what happened afterward. The coin’s physical history is therefore more specific than its denomination or its metal alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"kz-product-sources\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical and technical references:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.usmint.gov\/learn\/history\/us-circulating-coins\"\u003eU.S. Mint background\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.usmint.gov\/news\/inside-the-mint\/how-coins-are-made-coin-production-terminology\"\u003eU.S. Mint background\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kzoo Bullion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52528035627303,"sku":"90AUMD","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/5046\/7367\/files\/media_cf214279-c2dc-4656-a1ff-c99a97446a71.jpg?v=1793814514"}],"url":"https:\/\/kzoobullion.com\/collections\/condition-about-uncirculated.oembed","provider":"Kzoo Bullion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
