Coins are graded to their condition that includes the amount of wear it has. MS68 is a level of the grading used in coins. It is a very high rating, MS means Mint State which means uncirculated condition, straight off the mint's stamping die. 68 is a level of mint state, the higher the number the better the condition. Professional grading societies exist to grade coins they can tell the difference between a 68, 67 and a 69 mint state coin. Hope this helps you.
