edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 9:01 pm Any thoughts on what this might grade. Looks like a Type 1. http://www.ebay.com/itm/36131245326...K:MEBIDX:ITe Report this Post to the Staff

I really hope they didn't use that one photography trick that brings out the fields. I have no idea what a type 1 or what other types are but I grade this 66 cameo, unless it is a trick.

fromms2244 Valued Member United States 461 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 10:08 pm No doubt it is a type 1. Beautiful coin. You do not see as many cameos on the the tired old dies that made the type ones. I bet this jumps in another 30 minutes Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 06/08/2015 10:11 pm Yeah, that's what I thought too. 66 Cameos are not common, but they don't sell for as much as you'd think either. This would have to be a 67 to be worth it, and I'm not in love with the fingerprint on the obverse. Also not thrilled with seller's photos. I had to return an expensive coin to them once due to dicey pics. Most likely will pass on this one. edit: I did a Heritage search, and for some reason the 66 Cameos don't get much love One sold slabbed for around $200 a couple of years ago. Quote: I bet this jumps in another 30 minutes You were right, it doubled in the last 10 seconds. $310 is full retail slabbed for PF67.
