Cant help but wonder if this coin that was from Moores auction this past week would be graded same by ICCS? I have a 49 PL 67 graded by PCG and would be reluctant to crack it open and send to ICCS, I don't think mine would fetch more than a thousand.
Maybe this coin is headed for a registry set

I have a 49PL silver dollar also but don't have it certified
but looks like around a 67. Would be happy if it was worth 5-600 dollars.

I didn't know that PL strikes were done back in 1949. I thought it wasn't until 1952 ...

My understanding is that they were from rolls and most of them were high grade from there to PL ?

They started producing PL Dollars in 1949 although this is probably open to debate.
Check Coins and Canada pricing.
They show listing for PL Dollars from 1949 on.
Also ICCS certifies PL Dollars starting in 1949.

I thought that they started pl dollars in 1950 and that 1949 pl dollars stopped getting the attribution a long time ago.

Dollarman-
You may be right, guess it depends on who you talk to.
Colonial Acres have a 49 for sale that they grade as a PL.
I'm putting together a collection of PL silver dollars from
49 to 67 so I'll be hanging on to mine for awhile but thanks anyway.

no problem, it should be a pretty set. ive always wanted to do a king George VI proof like set and the PL68 was going to be my first acquisition if I won. It was at $600 then I refreshed and it went to $6000 so what can you do right? anyway goodluck on your set.
Feel free to call me Will.

I am fairly certain that ICCS stopped putting PL designation on 1949 dollars years ago. They only do specimens. IMHO the buyer of this coin may be a numbers guy being what the final bid was. I would just love to know what the ICCS PL 68 1956
Silver Dollar I placed in the early 1990's would bring. It is still finest of any service. I placed it then for $2,700 CDN.

ICCS does not grade any 1949 dollars as PL anymore.
There are a few old ICCS certs out there with the PL designation.
Currently according to ICCS, they are just nice MS strikes, not PL.

Dollarman.......No had I sold it to a very prominent Vancouver collector in 1990 or1991. In the ICCS 2014 report it is still a finest graded. The coin surfaced in Chicago at the CICF show, was part of an original 1956 set that I broke up. The rest of it was pretty choice as well the rest all came back in 66 or 67.

Kinda brings us back full circle again on ICCS vs PCG grading - so can I presume a PL 67 grade will come back from ICCS as an MS 66/67- not that I am going to have mine sent to ICCS - it looks more specimen to me in the nice slab it presently occupies as home until my grandson gets it.
