coinsrfun Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 11/18/2010 11:39 pm ANACS does not grade a Canadian coin properly on any day. To insinuate they do if silly. PCGS is the only American Company which comes close, but they are wrong most days. Remember......Canadian standards for Canadian coins.....y'all can grade US standards on y'alls stuff.

1cent Pillar of the Community Canada 1051 Posts	Posted 12/15/2010 9:18 pm The 1935 dollar would be MS, the 10c in the link is PL. ANACS is terrible for Canadian coins because they try and grade them the same way as they grade US coins. A PL in Canada comes from a mint set (or as a single coin in some cases) from the years of roughly 1949 to 1975. An MS coin is a business strike. It's one or the other, there is no "MS PL". You might have an MS coin with nice luster, but it's not PL. Canada also never had "proofs", we had specimens. To call the aforementioned mint issued coins proof-like is a misnomer on it's own, as there was no corresponding proof coin issue in Canada to relate this to, until the official production of proof coin sets in 1981. The whole thing is one massive mess of confusion that will never be properly sorted out. As if that wasn't enough, even our own Canadian companies can't agree on terminology, sometimes even with themselves. ICCS may call a given coin PL or NBU depending on the age of the flip, CCCS will use neither term and call it "UNC". Report this Post to the Staff
