I found this on ebay does this color really make it worth that much?

I guess we'll find out if it's worth that much based on if someone buys it or not.

That's a little ridiculous. I could see $150, but not that.

Does it warrant a premium over an average PF66? Yes. It is worth as much as a PF67CAM? No. It appears that the star designation has been used to denote that it is a one-sided cameo(reverse). IMO, that toning is way too dark to warrant the star designation for the toning alone, it should be vivid and colorful for a big premium.

In my opinion the coin looks full cameo on both sides.

I think that that guy has no idea what he has and is just going off what he thinks is a good value

I think the toning distracts from the mirror-like finish...

Way overpriced but the toning is nice tops I would offer would be $200 and that doesn't even come close to the opening bid. Leave that one alone.

As for the grade it is way over priced. Toning is subject to the eye of the beholder and each are unique but the coin isn't even cameo designated. I have a 1955 PCGS cameo 66 that was purchased for under $100, and this toned pr 67 cameo for less than $50.

It's exceptionally difficult to image toned proofs. I bet that coin is great in hand, and looks like a CAM with a dip.
