<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Burgess, post: 7380071, member: 105098&quot;]you ain&#039;t wrong, PCGS I dunno, just nonsensical when it comes to this. the base total is 1777 graded. 728 first strike, many sub categories under the base, for &quot;engraver series&quot; &quot;signature moy&quot; &quot;signature mercanti&quot; &quot;signature Hall&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>nothing for Mint Director signature series, or for Diehl in there at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, most of them are like 2-10 examples, so I don&#039;t think they have this even remotely correct on their populations.</p><p><br /></p><p>I found 2000W Platinum Mint director series PR69 at APMEX. So I mean clearly they didn&#039;t do this thing in any set year let&#039;s say. <a href="https://www.apmex.com/product/218902/2000-w-1-oz-proof-american-platinum-eagle-pr-69-pcgs-diehl" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.apmex.com/product/218902/2000-w-1-oz-proof-american-platinum-eagle-pr-69-pcgs-diehl" rel="nofollow">https://www.apmex.com/product/218902/2000-w-1-oz-proof-american-platinum-eagle-pr-69-pcgs-diehl</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I found this: <a href="https://www.pcgs.com/news/pcgs-signs-former-mint-director-diehl-for-autographed-coin-projects" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.pcgs.com/news/pcgs-signs-former-mint-director-diehl-for-autographed-coin-projects" rel="nofollow">https://www.pcgs.com/news/pcgs-signs-former-mint-director-diehl-for-autographed-coin-projects</a></p><p>this was as eary as 2004 when they signed him.</p><p><br /></p><p>it says at the end &quot;Certified, autographed coin products in the Mint Directors Series and American Heroes Series are offered for sale to the public by third-party vendors, not by PCGS.&quot; so I&#039;d think we, the public, couldn&#039;t buy that label for our submissions. </p><p><br /></p><p>So maybe it was a home shopping TV thing or something and they don&#039;t keep it that clear in their census..... what a mess trying to figure that out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
