IamPotato New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 09:06 am @kanga Nope. Straight out of a proof set cello. Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 09:12 am Looks legit to me. Definitely not DCAM but has a bit of Cameo. As for grade, looks PR67 or better. Hard to say without some really high resolution photos. I'll say PR-68+ but that's kind of a guess. Report this Post to the Staff
muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7197 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 09:25 am 1959 is a tough year for higher grade proof cameos. Your photos do not show the crisp frosting to make it to deep cameo. For comparison here is a proof 66 cameo. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 09:27 am I was kind of thinking like Kanga about that it looks plated . But now I'll say PF-67 Brilliant not Cameo . Report this Post to the Staff

IamPotato New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 09:45 am Here is a couple different pics. It looks a lot frostier in person. Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 09:48 am Second set of photos is better. I think PR-67 CAM. Definitely not plated. Can we see a zoom on that obverse mark near the U? Edited by fenton 05/16/2020 11:00 am Report this Post to the Staff
Fury Valued Member United States 258 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 11:38 am Amazing. Not sure if it is plated, But I'll give it a PR-67! Report this Post to the Staff

suipakpaikungfu Pillar of the Community United States 992 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 12:23 pm I'd say PR 66-67 and possible Cameo. Not Dcam. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 2:18 pm Now you know your new obverse photo just threw all of our calls out the window . Now the coin looks cameo . Another case of different pics giving different results . This trend seems to be a problem lately with a lot of posted coins . Report this Post to the Staff
