Thanks Ken and Johnny,
The ICCS information you have gained pretty much seals the idea of adding a PL to the string! I've tried to acquire a 2016 report for a long time for research. scarce as a 1949 PL dollar, ha.

The fact that ICCS removed them from their pop report gives way to the question... why are they listed in the Canadian Coin News in 3 grades since at least 2012? Could be a rhetorical question, that the editors are only reacting to the large quantity of said PCGS slabs out there. This I will ask of them.

Johnny, would you think that some of the graded coins 'could' be the Mirror versions listed in Charlton? I own Mirror and Matte 1937's. unfortunately they are not comparable finishes to the 1949 era, and are toned to a point I'll need a better microscope!
Thanks again for chiming in.B

If you had knowledge of PCGS grading standards you would understand their PL designation. The PCGS website offers an explanation. Originally used for Morgan dollars it has been expanded to other series of MS United States coins as well as MS World coins. ICCS takes a different approach concerning 1949 dollars.

Too much glare on the photos to see the complete surface.

@1858AoverA, to add to your summary in a previous post, they also minted just over 40000 of these in early 1950, due to the high demand. Possibly the only Canadian coin for which minting continued into the following year. (My source on that is Calgary Coin's website)

Yes, too much glare to grade.

It's called 'the ebay tilt'....as this makes the coin look much better than it actually is.
