Does PCGS give PL designation to any AU business issues?

I've been pleasantly surprised when NGC has called an AU58, AU58 prooflike, I think they will even do it with AU55 coins. Does PCGS do this? Thanks.

    While there are technically a few various AU PL Morgan dates on the pop report, I don't think they award the designation on circ coins.

    Edited to add: Looks like a total of five AU PL Morgans on the pop report and one DMPL.

    One of my surprises on getting a PL was an 1829 Bust half that NGC called an AU58PL, an issue with more PL looking coins than average. A big bonus to be sure. I think that PCGS started doing it with business issues in the last decade, especially gold liberties. I just didn't know that it extended to AUs.
