[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 4063668, member: 22377"]We all have different opinions on this and that's what keeps things interesting. :) Personally, I like the look of PL coins and Cameo Proofs. So, to me a coin that has PL qualities on one side is more appealing than a coin that isn't pl at all (same with cameo). Thus, I like the idea of NGC having a designation that recognizes these types of coins. Even if I didn't like PL, I do find it useful to have a designation that tells me if a coin is close or only has it on one side. It might not be totally necessary in hand, but could be useful for online or other sight unseen purchases. A different method to consider could be what Anacs does: write something like "Obv PL" on the label. If NGC used that (including Rev PL, Rev Cameo, etc) it might be even clearer than the star. Then they could have kept the star for truly special and eye appealing coins.[/QUOTE]
