Agree with cwb and Thulium on mislabeled pic 2 caption.

Thulium, when I saw you were the last post, I thought you had an update for us!

Sorry for false alarm--I should have news by Friday.
Personally, I feel pretty hopeful about this coin.

OK...the coin arrived, and it's 100% a CAM! It's great when hunches pay off--just made my day!

For now, a quick shot in the proof set plastic.

Congrats! I've never seen a proof cent up close, so I didn't know the Memorial bays were cameo as well. A new lesson every day here at ccf!

Thanks...it took a lot of searching to find this one. I now have 2 1999 CAMs, and hope to find a 98 CAM now. Hey, if I find another '99 CAM, I'll send you the link.

Correct it should have read ' Close AM'.

The next time you post a new CAM find, I'll remind you of this promise! I took a look on ebay after you posted, saw a ton of normal proofs, went cross eyed with the blurry pics, then called it a night!

You bet--I have two 99s, so happy to share. Yeah, it's hard to stare at all those pictures, but I've got a system for it. I've calculated the incidence of Close AM to normal proof is something around 1/1000--but probably less since many have already been found.
