[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 5537989, member: 19165"]This is a very common misconception: there is absolutely no requirement for contrast between fields and devices for a PL or DPL coin. PL coins could be fully brilliant across the entire coin and still qualify - it is based solely on the reflectivity of the fields. The cameo effect is incredibly attractive and will earn a premium, but is absolutely not required for the designation. Yes, there is a standard which applies to all dates and mints - that's why some dates are *incredibly* scarce in PL/DPL. Some mints/dates just didn't make very many high quality prooflikes. And yes, based on my interpretation of those pictures, that coin qualifies for DMPL.[/QUOTE]
