    I am new to this site; my question' I'm interested in a coin that is NGC AU with no trailing number.

    I see it looks like AU-50 is the lowest in AU would that apply to the AU grade.

    thank you.

      Hello and welcome to the NGC forum.

      I believe you are talking about an adjectival grade, a grade where there is no numerical grade assigned. This seems to typically be used when people or businesses submit large numbers of the same type of coin. NGC's definition of AU is 50-58, so yes, 50 would be the lowest a coin graded AU would score. 50 would also be how the coin is scored in the NGC registry, if you are building a registry set.
