2020 25 Cents (Quarter) Regular or Commemorative (Caribou/Special Design)
BU (MS-66) GEM +
Description of the room
This 2020 Canadian 25-cent coin is graded MS-66 (Mint State 66) , placing it in the "GEM+" (Superior Jewel) or "Superb Gem Uncirculated" category. This grade is extremely high for a modern, mass-produced circulation coin (like the standard Caribou quarter dollar) or for one of the 2020 commemorative coins (like the "Connecting Canada" or "Numis-Tastic!" series).
This grade indicates a piece of remarkable technical and aesthetic quality, very difficult to obtain due to the high-volume production methods of the Royal Canadian Mint.
The part is made of nickel-plated steel.
MS-66 (Mint State 66) quality
-
Luster: The striking luster is total, very strong and virtually flawless , with a brilliant original shine. The piece is entirely free of wear from circulation.
-
Strike: The strike is crisp and complete , with perfect definition of all the details of the design (whether it is the standard Caribou or a special 2020 design).
-
Imperfections: An MS-66 piece is considered a superior piece of jewelry . It may only exhibit isolated, minuscule, and insignificant contact marks that can only be found upon close inspection and are located outside the focal points of the design. The visual appeal is nearly perfect.
-
Tone: The color and surface condition are impeccable.
The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The reverse displays either the classic Caribou or one of the 2020 commemorative designs.
