PCGS Coinfacts corrections needed for 1947-S BTW commemorative

Dear PCGS and PCGS forum members,

There seems to be much wrong (has been for a while and they've never updated it when I emailed them) with the 1947-S BTW coinfacts link. The first picture is a 1947-D in MS67 instead of a 1947-S. Secondly, the cert number 20390097 no longer exists and is listed as a MS66, but it certainly was (and likely still is) a MS66+. The correct cert number for this coin now is cert number #: 20411377

Just signed up (again), and was certainly surprised to see the + missing next to the 66 grade and the fact the cert number was never updated. Anyway, there's the proper information for that coin. It no longer exists in my possession. But just a FYI to whomever is responsible for coinfacts and for anybody looking for (to compare a trueview) a 1947-S MS66+ BTW image

Enjoy your week!

  • Hi Me,

    I shut off the image of the 1947-D...that was clearly a mistake.

    Something is going on with the imaging. You are correct that the MS-66 has been upgraded to MS66+ 20411377. We have a TrueView image of the MS66+, and I'm having IT check out why it is not showing up.

    Often, I'm trolling the message boards for posts such as yours, and I'm happy to receive notices of incorrect information on PCGS CoinFacts. Generally, it is easy to fix mistakes and the feedback you provide helps us identify and fix potential problems. Many thanks,

    Best wishes,

    Since you saw this, may I also suggest that the MS67 1947-S BTW is actually posted to the 1947-D BTW coinfacts coin. They are/were swapped. I wrote a long time ago about those two being swapped. But I contacted PCGS direct. Now that Broadstruck has enlightened me and you do follow the posts here...I can at least help assist in some of the clean up on CF in the commemorative area. image Thanks for the response. And have a wonderful week, Ron!

    (Thanks guys for your responses also)
