rcavalcanti7 New Member Brazil 23 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 09:32 am Hey everyone, I came across this 1970-S Washington quarter that I thought was in a pretty good condition. Would this be considered Cameo? Any grading advice on it? Appreciate it. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 09:42 am The obverse of this proof certainly looks like a cameo, but not the reverse in these pics. to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog 04/28/2021 09:43 am Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18660 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 09:44 am this is a proof washington. the reverse lighting may be hiding the CAMEO. maybe post another shot of the reverse at a slight angle. both sides need to be in order to get the designation. based on these photos the coin may have seen circulation and if so would be designated as an impaired proof.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 09:44 am It does look like a cameo, I do not think it would make a DCAM though. You need to put it in the right sized holder so it doesn't slide around in the capsule. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
rcavalcanti7 New Member Brazil 23 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 10:06 am Thank you everyone for the quick responses. I will take better pictures of it and will definitely put it into a proper sized coin holder after I do it. Report this Post to the Staff
rcavalcanti7 New Member Brazil 23 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 11:43 am I tried to get better shots of it from an angle. Hope it helps. And thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff
KYCopperCoins Pillar of the Community United States 1361 Posts	Posted 04/28/2021 4:54 pm I'd say this is a case of a more fresh obverse die than reverse die. Wouldn't make cam in a slab due to the reverse lacking cam, but still a nice looking proof. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18660 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 09:14 am still way too much lighting rcavalcanti7 in the last set. your second set of photos are probably closer to what the coin looks like in hand and if so i'd say no CAM. proofs are tough to get a good photo.

rcavalcanti7 New Member Brazil 23 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 10:55 am Thanks everyone, it really is hard to get good pictures of it. Those are pretty close photos of what it looks like in hand, so I'd agree with no CAM as well. Report this Post to the Staff
