An NGC MS-62 Coin
NGC, or Numismatic Guaranty Company, is a well-known third-party organization that evaluates and grades coins using the Sheldon Scale. This scale rates coins from 1 to 70 based on their condition.
MS stands for Mint State, a coin issued as a business circulation one. Grade 62 suggests that the coin may present marks and hairlines in focal areas, noticeable scuff marks, and below-average planchet quality. But acceptable overall appearance.
