If you need some more contrast, just add enamel!  Ms. Kitty White and a black poodle whose name escapes me (Doggy Black?) The black part of the umbrella is just your usual proof coin surface.

On the lighter side. A recent purchase.  Someone created the cameo with a swab and coin dip. Canada's foremost TPG then slabbed it.

As a newbie, I have never seen a cameo coin "in real life", only in pictures. In fact, I only became aware of them recently with my new found interest in coins, so I see them on coin sites and in the Red Book..They are very eye catching, I can see what the draw is. Eventually I may add one or more to my collection.

Cameo 1950 Proof Half. Sometimes it seems that when PCGS makes their TrueView images, they are not done in a way to accentuate the background as dark. This coin does have the cameo designation.

 I was just going to say, Lincoln Penny cameos may not be as pricey as some others, but the polished copper fields contrast nicely against the profiles.
