<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 24487842, member: 46237&quot;]The standard they use for determining PL uses distance of reflectivity, however, this differs based on the coin. The more common prooflike surfaces are for the date/MM, the higher the bar is to get the designation. As a result, some dates will need what would be DPL for another date just to get a PL designation. Other dates will get a PL where the surfaces would not merit it on a date where it wasn&#039;t scarce. This is for US coins where the population of PL coins is well understood. For world coins it is an order of magnitude harder to get the PL designation. For a long time, world coins were ineligible for the designation, and afterwards they didn&#039;t always check. The bar for world coins now is generally pretty high. For this reason if you see a world coin with PL from NGC, take notice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
