Thanks, BH1964. I don't think this coin was ever submitted. The guy I buy from is local and almost always sells raw coins. He's always been spot on when it comes to condition and designations, too. However, I always value raw coins at least one grade below what I think they are (to be conservative) and will only pay PL prices even if it looks to be a strong DMPL. As I mentioned, this coin has 12-inch mirrors on both sides (well above the threshold) and I believe some gray areas are actually due to my camera lens interfering with the cameo, because these spots aren't stationary and move around as the camera/lens moves. The fields do have a lot of chatter and the frost is moderate, though. In any event, I appreciate the links and honest opinion.
