<p>[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 3323586, member: 19165"]Yes, there are 64 Business strike quarters made with proof reverse dies (the designation is actually Type B, but I'll let that slide). However, if you look closely at my coin, you'll see it is a Type A - not the proof die. (For a quick primer on how to easily tell, see here: <a href="http://doubleddie.com/286101.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://doubleddie.com/286101.html" rel="nofollow">http://doubleddie.com/286101.html</a> )</p><p><br /></p><p>However, it has mirrored, reflective surfaces. These mirrored surfaces are extremely unusual, and some people will pay a significant premium for them. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you can't get on board with the PL designation, that's fine. I'm just trying to make sure you understand the difference and why some people feel they deserve a special designation. To me, it's in the same category as FH or FBL, or RD or RB - it gives searchers a bit more information about the coin, and lets me filter out exactly the ones I want. The grading system hasn't really changed - Morgan PL's have been recognized for generations. These type coin PL's are significantly less common, and so are not as widely understood.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
