4716663-001 N.G.C. This is the coin in question. I do not agree with the grade So I want someone to please set me straight. If its not a Cameo , or deep cameo, then it has to be a Brilliant UN circulated Does it not? And the edge and rim do not look Proof to me. So I can take it, am I full of it.?

I'm looking forward, to seeing your Jeff. A buddy of mine has an
MS67 that puts many proofs to shame.

 to CCF. Proof is not a grade, it is a minting process. John1

This NGC "coin grading scale" may help. https://www.NGCcoin.com/coin-gradin...ading-scale/As you see, according to NGC, there are strike types, numeric grades, and strike characteristics. These are all separate things. So in this case, a proof strike type can be deemed regular, cameo, or ultra cameo (often called deep cameo elsewhere). To add confusion to it, a "circulation strike" can be deemed "proof-like" and "deep proof-like". It took me a long time to wrap my head around all this, and I'm not sure if I completely understand it even now. In Canada there is a wide range of years where there are "proof-like" coins designated Cameo, Heavy Cameo, and Ultra Heavy Cameo (not NGC though). Go figure!
