<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NorthKorea, post: 2229577, member: 29643&quot;]I should have clarified: I&#039;ve never seen a PL designation on non-gold AU coins. Gold is soft enough that it&#039;s entirely possible that there might be circulation rub on the highest points without any evidence of circulation in the fields or lower points. I can&#039;t imagine that happening with harder metals, such as silver or nickel. Additionally, gold coins wouldn&#039;t be circulated as often as other coins, so I can certainly see the potential for AU58 PL coinage.</p><p><br /></p><p>On a separate note, I don&#039;t imagine the US Mint going out of its way to polish the dies used for Hawaiian coinage, and I would guess that the &quot;highest quality&quot; (whatever makes one better than another) planchets would be used on US coins, as opposed to a foreign nation&#039;s coins. The combination of these factors seem to make it less likely that there&#039;d be a prevalence of PL Hawaii coins, let alone AU PL Hawaii coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
