<p>[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2735069, member: 69760"]What's funny is that I wrote right on the submission form that it's a "Proof-Like", just in case they don't bother doing the proof-like test. I can see it being a burden for them after grading say, hundreds of Morgans that day, so maybe only the most obvious proof-like fields get checked. If this was a borderline PL coin, then maybe they wouldn't have checked at all without my note, just as they don't check with the vast majority of business strike coins (imagine the backlog if it was a company policy to PL test all non-proof coins).</p><p><br /></p><p>Though, they probably can tell at first glance since they do this all day. If they go through thousands of PL and DMPL Morgans, I'm sure it becomes easy as pie. But, I'll continue to add those notes just in case - no harm in that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
