New Purchase: 1904 NGC MS-62 Prooflike (PL) $20 Gold Liberty Double Eagle -- Invite Your Comments

I'm delighted to share this new purchase of a 1904 NGC MS-62 Prooflike (PL) $20 Gold Liberty Double Eagle with my fellow forum members. I have wanted a certified Prooflike $20 Liberty Double Eagle for quite a while -- which makes finding this coin even more gratifying and fun!! 
This is one of those coin types for which NGC assigns the Prooflike designation for deserving coins, but for which PGS does not.

Nice coin, Stuart. I bet it is very flashy and enjoyable in person.

That's just a mere 0.224% or 2.24 out of each 1000 coins!!

I agree pictures make PL low MS grade coins look pretty marked up.
Although that is certainly true, far less than 1% of the 1904's in existence are PL, regardless of what the slabs say.

On very rare occasions, NGC will even designate “DPL” (Deep Prooflike) to some Double Eagles, however, this designation is even rare for 1904’s.
When you receive the coin, you will have to provide an update to describe the depth of mirrors and provide one of your pics.
I'm curious to see if the mirror depth is the same as a morgan or if the standards are different for gold.
