Notes:
The finest Uncirculated examples graded by PCGS are 16 MS-67's,
5 MS-66 Prooflikes, and 9 MS-65 Deep Mirror Prooflikes.
Proof examples of this date are rather
difficult to locate in Gem Proof, although PR-67s are among the more
"common" of the series. In fact, PCGS has certified
11 PR-67's, but none finer. The finest Proof Cameo and Proof Deep
Cameo examples graded by PCGS is a single PRCA-68 and 2 PRDC-65s,
respectively.
