UHR PL candidate? (updated photos)

Updated with more Photos (scans) to hopefully help with showing the mirror

Do you guys think my UHR could be a PL candidate? I am having trouble finding some good PL images to compare to. For the record this is a MS69 FS. These images I think make it look a little more matte than it really is. Thanks in advance.

    Possible... but it's hard to differentiate the mirrors from the frost in your photos.

    I don't see the typical polish lines - which helps your case. Try MCM's site periodically as they often post good pics of the PL.

    Thanks for your opinions. I will see if I can get a photo that better shows the mirrors. Will be tough though since my SLR recently broke. image

    As with most UHR's that fail to obtain the PL designation from what I have seen... the reverse stops it. Good luck, but take a close look at the reverse before submitting.

    That is a beautiful coin... and for me, the PL or grade would not matter. Cheers, RickO

    Do the additional scans help?

    Well I have two MS69s that I resubmitted and BOTH very much look PL but only one got the PL label but yet the other one looks more PL in my opinion.. Go figure..

    I wish the grading process was a little less subjective. Do either of yours look similar to mine? Would you mind posting a photo?

    How about this one? I am thinking about sending it in for a regrade.

    If you send it in and if it doesnt get attributed as PL, will they let you keep it in the same holder.. and grade ? I would hate to mess up the MS 70 first strike thing..If so, it seems to be a good gamble.
