PCGS 5 oz Pucks now grading PL, will PCGS grade UHRs prooflike now?

I was just thinking that now that PCGS is grading the 5 oz ATB coins with the prooflike designation if PCGS has now decided to graded Ultra High Relief coins with PL designation as well. If so this could be huge for the few coins that obtain the designation if PCGS were giving it

    Here it is

    Effective immediately, PCGS will recognize Prooflike (PL) designations for 2009 Ultra High Relief (UHR) $20 gold coins. Also, effective immediately, PCGS will recognize Prooflike (PL) and Deep Mirror Prooflike (DMPL) designations for 2010 5 oz. America the Beautiful coins. Many of these business strike coins were minted from highly polished dies and warrant special recognition.

    GREAT NEWS!! Thanks BigE.image
  • I actually have a First Strike MS70, but if i want to send it in to try and get the PL designation what service would i need to do it under. It probably a long shot to get the PL designation but worth the try

    "<< regrade service. I would not crack it out >>".

    It sure is worth a try. I keep 1 PCGS URL FS MS70 that has a deep mirror finish. Regrade it is.

    Thank you for posting the info.
