<p>[QUOTE=&quot;samclemens3991, post: 25218862, member: 82181&quot;]I don&#039;t know about barber coins but there is some confusion concerning Proof Like Seated coins.&nbsp; Part of this is due to the fact that for over 30 years all of the grading services reserved PL for silver dollars only.</p><p>Mark Twain once said, &quot;He knew a man who didn&#039;t believe trains existed but one ran him over anyway.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; Well, just because the grading services decided to ignore PL coins in other series and denominations didn&#039;t mean they didn&#039;t exist.</p><p>Some people are under the impression that PL Seated coins are extremely rare because of how few have that designation but I can personally attest to having seen several and actually own a 1891-S seated quarter AU-55 that has no PL designation but has better mirrors than an 1878-S trade dollar I have slabbed MS-62 PL.</p><p>You can also consult Q. David Bowers book on Liberty Seated Silver Coins.&nbsp; He mentions numerous coins that he says have PL populations.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know about circ./unc. but a coin either has mirrors or it doesn&#039;t, much like any other aspect of coin minting.&nbsp; My opinions anyway.&nbsp;&nbsp; James[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
