What does AU58 mean on a 2001-P Washington quarter?

A 2001-P Washington quarter graded AU58 is that coin in one particular state of preservation — the date and the mint mark are already fixed, and AU58 is what a grader called the surface that survived.

A 2001-P Washington quarter is one of 5 reverse designs struck at that mint that year, and this page covers all 5, so the range above runs from the commonest of them in AU58 to the scarcest. Within a single design the spread is narrower than it looks here; between them it is what decides whether a roll is worth sorting.

What AU58 means

A 2001-P Washington quarter in About Uncirculated (AU-58) is as close to uncirculated as a circulated coin gets: the lustre is nearly complete and the only wear is a faint rub across the high points of Washington’s hair above and behind the ear that shows when the coin is tilted under a light. Many are better-looking coins than a low mint state example of the same date, and they sell for less.

A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade AU-58. They are the same grade and the same 2001-P Washington quarter.
