I just made my first AU58+ coin at PCGS and would love to see others. Post if you have them, and especially if you make them

Had a B+ coin once
Those are deserving of a plus

It's not having what you want, it's wanting what you've got.
There is ONE at Collectorscorner 1920-S Saint Gaudens PCGS AU58+ ...and it's CAC approved as well.
There are some at Collectors.com although some are duplicates, ebay items listed in conjunction with storefront sales.
Incredible Busties lkeigwin & Rich! The old gold and seated series as well!
BST transactions: dbldie55, jayPem, 78saen, UltraHighRelief, nibanny, liefgold, FallGuy, lkeigwin, mbogoman, Sandman70gt, keets, joeykoins, ianrussell (@GC), EagleEye, ThePennyLady, GRANDAM, Ilikecolor, Gluggo, okiedude, Voyageur, LJenkins11, fastfreddie, ms70, pursuitofliberty, ZoidMeister,Coin Finder, GotTheBug, edwardjulio, Coinnmore, Nickpatton, Namvet69,...
And it wouldn't surprise me if the cost-spread counterintuitively narrowed between AU58+ and MS62, as I suspect people would opt to pay more $$ for the PQ AU58+ coins rather than hacked up/unattractive MS62 UNCs.
Just my 10 cents

So I broke the rules...Grading is subjective or something like that.
Brian, I hear you...
One of the challenges of collecting for a long time/or one series/or avidly or all of the above, is that you/me/we all tend to see a lot of coins and inadvertently rank them (practically speaking) within their own realm. I don't know about you, but I fall into this trap frequently and have to remind myself to not go there...
I ultimately believe more in coin ranking than coin grading and would immediately switch over to that methodology if it was offered by a TPG.
As mentioned above, there are not a whole lotta AU58+ coins out there...your gold piece fits right in!
Birds of a feather...

Wowee ! ??
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

Those surfaces are mauled. 55 is correct.
No 1732 Cardinal?

Disagree. It is a proof like coin. It came from the greatest type set (Jimmy Hayes) and the greatest No Motto half eagle set (Milas). Consider there are 40-50 known in all grades and this coin is about #4 in the condition census. You can find the write-up of this particular coin and issue here:

Its a beautiful coin. That is not in question. But that doesn't change its technical merits. If I'm wrong, so is NGC and so is CAC.
No 1732 Cardinal?
I know...right? I have to say that I was really bummed out when the Choice Unc 1732 8R and 4R pair was withdrawn from Heritage's recent sale!
This is a nice tribute. But to be honest, I've seen some 58+'s that made me shake my head.

if you ever host a photography class, let me know as myself and several others need attend. including some that charge for their services
one of the best diffusers around.
soft, even, lustrous with minimal hot spots while being accurate.
just some minor dark areas but that is a quick fix. besides, whom wants perfection.

There is just something about the big date numbers on the 1858 that gets my juices flowing!
