    You can look at your own (or any other sites) links and answer that question in about 2 seconds...no, Google doesn't display links that are only PR4 or higher. That got phased out years ago.

    Do you mean they don't display links that are PR4 or lower?

    G only shows a random sample of backlinks.

    Only random thinks, you can search and find it by yourself. Just a little question: why you care about Google link command? Everybody knows G only shows a little quantity.

    I forgot the word only. Should have read, and I edited the original post to reflect;

    It's just a random sample of known links. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Looking at G's link: command is worthless, I don't know why they even have it.

    Before today, I didn't know they only showed a random sample. Good to know though, thanks.

    They USED to show only PR4 + links but figured out that everyone would reverse engineer those..lol. You never know all the links that Google sees for you. But, neither does your competition so it works both ways.
