Unusual for an AU that’s for sure. Early strike, then briefly circulated or shuffled between albums and cabinets, then plucked and dipped, yet still emerged quite striking and special.

Really an UNC that is net graded for handling marks. Would be MS60 PL (Obv is just shy of DMPL) if a Morgan. Note it was graded long before PCGS started grading PL for non- Morgan’s but I am not sure if they grade AUs PL nowadays to be worth resubmitting. Cool coin

I have seen a few AU coins with PL designations from NGC (hence my "across the street" reference), but none from PCGS.
I do agree that the above coin looks like an MS60, maybe even a notch higher. The PL/DMPL fields really magnify the chatter.

I shot that one a long time ago but I am sure that is a PL all day long off they did it for AU's. Great coin pickup.
