COIN LINGO

Someone posted a thread asking what a "POP" is. So I thought it would be neat if everyone posted something different to start a Numisbonics Dictionary.

"POP" is short for Population. Not to be confused with Mintage since Population reports are published by grading services to indicate how many of a particular coin were graded a particular grade.
HAVE A GREAT DAY! THE CHOICE IS YOURS!!!!
