I didn't even know these existed. When I saw this coin I knew I had to have it. The cameo is super nice.
If you have one please an image.

    .
    Looks good. That is probably what got it the star (and no spots or other).

    Cool.

    I certainly don’t understand how they determine what gets a star and what doesn’t.
    I submitted a number of nice toner foreign coins recently, and though they all graded, no stars were awarded.

    A couple of links on the star.

    Thanks @lilolme.

    They don’t even list any dark side as eligible for the star designation, so that might explain it; except I think I’ve seen some in dealer cases before??
    Anyway, the OPs new coin is quite nice and exceptional for a 63, and well deserved.

    World coins are eligible for a star but it seems like NGC is more stringent on giving them out.

    Very nice. Twenty years ago that would be a DMPL (DPL).

    World coins are eligible for a star but it seems like NGC is more stringent on giving them out.

    And here is the article from NGC mentioning that world coins became eligible starting February 1, 2014:

    The *PL in this case is typically because the obverse was determined to be DPL, but the reverse only PL.

    • on an NGC label denotes exceptional eye appeal for the assigned grade. In practice interpretation of this is a:
      PL or DPL obverse with a non-PL/non-DPL reverse = *
      DPL obverse with a PL reverse = * PL
      Non-PL/non-DPL obverse, even with a PL or DPL reverse = no star

    As certain toning also equates to exceptional eye appeal for the assigned grade, toning can also bring a * on the label. In my experience, some of the most misunderstood reasons for not having a *, once NGC began considering stars, on the label of a toned coin s the degree of toning, the particular colors, and/or the uniformity of the toning.

    On the medallion it says circulated. And I thought all soft pack GSAs were circulated.
    Am I being dumb right now?

    GSA didn’t always get them right.

    NGC's stars, as abundant as the stars in the sky and you just gotta wonder why. And that's all I am saying on the subject(ive) matter.
