Post Your Plus (+) Grade Coins

A Plus coin is a coin that is very high end for the assigned grade. The coin does not quite make it to the next grade but has superior qualities for the grade it's in. Some people call them sliders. Some call them PQ. The coin stands out.

Several factors go into determining whether a coin is Plus or not. Eye appeal such as beautiful toning is just one of several factors. Strike, luster, marks, originality and eye appeal all are part of the Plus decision. We could have used decimal grades but realized it would be too difficult and confusing in the market.

In the past 12 months, only 1.56% of all coins graded received a plus grade at PCGS. Post Yours!

No, but I did bid on it. Not enough, clearly.

Impressive! AU-58+ is a very tough grade to get.

Some really Nice coins!!

ElmerFusterpuck · August 5, 2017 5:35PM

My only one:

Edited to add, it's a 58+. Somehow misread the thread and thought it was just for 58+ grades. I do have a few other plus grade coins.

What's the grade on that?

amwldcoin · August 6, 2017 5:10AM

Here's an unusual + grade. Wish I could catch the luster better as it's a screamer!

That one is a 58+. Somehow I had a brain fart and misread that this was a thread for 58+ grades. I do have a few other + grades, but not really all that many.
