Does Anyone Here Own Either Of These Proof-Like Franklins?

These PL Franklins were in a 2004 Heritage auction of "The William Paul Proof-Like Collection". I haven't seen them for sale anywhere since the auction so I assume they may be in strong hands. I'd love to see the '54-S but the one I'm most interested in is the 1959 NGC MS66*. Of the few 1959 PLs that I've seen all were type 2, struck from proof dies. This one is the class III DDR type 2/type 1 and is probably one of the first strikes from the die pair. BTW, there were some amazing PL coins in that auction so take a look if you get a chance.
Feel free to post any Frankies to this thread!

Doe's PCGS now give the PL designation to Franklins?

I don't think they do but I wish they would.
