The condition is what caught my eye. Is this a Cameo coin? What condition may this coin be considered? Report this Post to the Staff

CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12815 Posts	Posted 02/10/2019 10:15 pm Definitely a proof with that "S" mint mark. Could just be the photos but it looks fairly worn to me. Edited by CelticKnot 02/10/2019 10:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Viperkl New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 02/11/2019 12:17 am Thank you. Yes, it does have wear. There's no telling how long it's been in circulation. I came across it while looking for State Quarters to finish my son's album. I just thought it was neat to find a cameo in the change jug. Report this Post to the Staff
