<p>[QUOTE=&quot;drbrummer, post: 2948369, member: 76441&quot;]Well in this case, the &quot;experts&quot; (Greer and Fortin) both state that only business strikes come from this die pair. I assume PCGS and/or NGC would go with the best available data if challenged. As far as other series, I suppose it would matter how much research has been done into die pairs, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>As previously stated, often proof dies were retired only to be reused for business strikes. A nice example I have is an AU55(star) 3cs. I have not found a reference to assist me in coming to a definate conclusion that the coin is a business strike and not a proof, but the strike and rims seem to imply that it is. I hope this is the case as the last couple auction records in AU are well above guide prices...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
