Copper nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has been observed at plane and chain Cu sites in PrBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7}. The field-swept NMR signal from plane Cu sites disappears due to magnetic ordering below {approximately}280 K. In the antiferromagnetic state ({ital T}=1.4 K) quadrupole-split NMR spectra from plane-site Cu nuclei can be fit using an axial electric-field gradient ({nu}{sub {ital Q}}=17{plus minus}2 MHz) and an internal field {ital H}{sub int}=65.2{plus minus}0.2 kOe directed at an angle 79{degree}{plus minus}1{degree} to the {ital c} axis. The observation of plane-Cu magnetism is consistent with the absence of doped holes on CuO{sub 2} planes in PrBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7}, which supports the view that hole filling is important in suppressing superconductivity in Y{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}Pr{sub {ital x}}Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7}.
