We have had some interesting discussions on the Churchill Crown in terms of the difficulty obtaining a 66 or possible a 67.
What about the 1960 Crown?
Where these handled better at the mint? I am not talking about the PLs - just commercial examples intended for circulation. Are these difficult in 65 and higher?
Just curious

The currency, well a grab bag literally and figuratively as these went into sacks and banged around a good bit. IMO a 67 in currency would be tough but might be found, and at a fairly low price as demand for these would be eclipsed by the availability of the PLs and exhibition coins. May be some overlap on the latter with PLs, and maybe a few currency found their way in, but can only speculate.
Well, just Love coins, period.
I would think for the sake of completeness, that a collector would seek the PL and the business strike for their collection.
I was just wondering if in the higher grade the business strike would ultimately bring more- I would think it would be a more of a condition rarity depending how many survived in such a high grade.
Its likely probable that few have contemplated this...

You are making sense but shiny seems to attrack a premium over dull. Don't forget there had not been a crown released for circulation since 1902. All subsequent issues were for souvenirs, so apart from the occassional wreath crown thet got into circulation we are talking degrees of bag marks.
