I've been working out my logo as a signature to be animated from a coreldraw line art and I then spin it 360 degrees to a final resting spot. I export the file as a DV file into Vegas. But noticed the edges of my logo is not as clean as I wanted. but appears jagged on the edges when it is spinning. Is there a better output from AE6 into my 24P advanced Vegas timeline in order to get a cleaner output? Or should I output it as a 29.97 document into a 29.97 timeline vs 23.976 timeline? Any response is appreciated.

Output uncompressed...best way to go in AE

is your output from AE interlaced?

Probably not, and if not, you need to right click on the footage in Vegas and make sure it is being interpreted as progressive.

And as oneinf said, go uncompressed or losless codec and save yourself the headached of a lossy (DV) codec hitting your work. .png sequence, .mov with animation codec, .avi uncompressed, someting like that.
