here's one I was really shocked to see...PCGS certified this as the finest 1967 diving goose dollar at the grade of PL-67...but how on earth did they miss the fact that the goose should be diving!?

Tbh the holder looks iffy to Me. However if not and it is a mistake on PCGS's part, there would still probably be someone who doesn't care and just wants the plastic and label haha.

That should be one of a kind!
The holder is getting all of the attention.
But by the way, nice coin!

Look at the seller's pics.
The coin has about a 15 degree die rotation.
While most Canadian collectors would not consider this coin to be a "diving goose" PCGS deems that any rotation of a 1967 dollar is all it takes.
Why are we surprised by this?
There are so many, many ways that PCGS goes against the traditions and sensibilities of Canadian collectors.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

thanks for the info DBM! jeez I would've expected them to have a standard for such a thing since we all know and consider the diving goose to be a 45 degree rotation...accepting a 15 degree rotation is disappointing..

Many 1967 Prooflike Dollars have a minor rotation like this PCGS Graded Example . Sure not the real deal, of the Back Door out of the Mint, in Paint cans all sent to a Prominent Ontario Coin Dealer back in the day, then distributed to favoured dealers across Canada , genuine Diving Goose.
P- Poor
C- Canadian
G- Grading
S- Service
PCGS should stick to what they do best . Grading US Coins to US standards. Any thing else is really a stretch.

I've started to really like PCGS and I still do, but I agree with you on many fronts about them and Canadian coins Paccoin..

Don't forget that is an older PCGS holder... they are learning along the way...

It's nice PL67, hard to see the if its diving or not! But by the looks of the picture they missed the Heavy Cameo also.
