PCGS graded 1967 Proof Dimes

Post by Murphcrud » Tue Jan 16, 2024 3:05 pm

Why are there so many Canada Mackerel 1967 Proof Like strike coins out there that are graded by PCGS as being Proof? I have seen this many times not only on these coins, but on many others as well. These 1967 dimes seem to be what has caught my eye recently. Anybody?

There were probably a lot proof sets broken up and sent in for grading.

There were no 1967 proof sets.
They are not proof strikes, they are specimen strikes that PCGS has decided to call proof strikes even though the mint did not have the technology to produce proof coins in 1967.

TBH is right Canadian proofs started in 1981

Probably an UHC PL coin or a Specimen one.
