think of! Let''s take a brief look at these five areas, and how cameo''s rate in relation to other U.S. coinage. There are few coins in numismatics as attractive as a cameo proof. While some may disagree with this statement, there is no disputing coin the opinions of literally thousands of collectors and dealers already familiar with this coinage. Proof coins themselves are minted specifically for collectors. As such, collector they have always represented the state-of-the-art in minting techniques. The show mint has always gone to considerable trouble to coin produce these coins. Proof dies are highly polished and buffed collector until the surfaces possess a mirror-like perfection. Planchets go through extra steps in their preparation, until they too possess a brighter, satiny appearance. Traditionally, proof planchets have been hand-fed into the die, and have always been double struck, under higher pressures than business strikes, to bring out every possible detail. show and coin Once struck, the coins are handled individually so as not to abrade with other coins, as business strikes normally would. Cameo proofs were the very earliest strikes off new proof dies. During certain periods in the history of the mint, part of the die preparation process

of BU Franklins I acquired, 100 rolls of 1963-D''s, a total of 2,000 coins, resulted in financial collector and show disaster coin for me and my collector partner. Oh, the bag quantity was original all right. All the rolls were in their original show bank-wrappings, coin and had obviously never been unwrapped. The coins in these rolls were beautiful, bright blazers. We submitted the 125+ nicest coins to PCGS and NGC for grading, figuring collector if we got 40 or 50 MS 65''s we''d make a show profit. The result? 5 MS 65''s!! The rest graded coin and collector either MS 64 or MS 63. Why? The majority had a couple too many bag marks show (a common problem with BU Franklins), coin or had a bit too much pitting on the high-points of the devices collector (another common problem show with BU Franklins), or coin were too softly struck to grade MS 65 (another common problem with BU Franklins, or finally, had some very collector light hairline scratches, the result of having passed through a coin counter! By comparison, show a single roll of late date Walking Liberty half dollars would likely have more gems among the 20 coins than the 1963-D Franklins did among the 2,000. Despite having populations a fraction of the Walking Liberty halves in gem condition, coin gem Franklins are currently priced well below the levels Walkers are currently selling at. Additionally, if one wishes to compare the populations of untoned, brilliant MS 65 Walkers to untoned, brilliant MS 65 Franklins, the population differences are even more striking in favor of the Franklins!

packaging used for these earlier coins, it almost seems a miracle that any high quality cameos from the 1950 to 1970 era exist at all! collector The finest cameos, being early strikes off proof dies, are quite simply "the best of the best", for they are not only struck from proof dies, the finest possible dies, but are struck from those dies when they are in their most pristine, unworn state! There could not be a more striking difference between one of these first cameo strikes, and show between a coin struck much later off the die - a brilliant coin proof. If one did not know better, one would think that the two coins were struck from two completely different dies! In a sense, they were. More correctly, they were both struck from the same die, but one coin was struck before that die had experienced the wearing effect of 100''s of tons of pressure of metal on metal, and one coin was struck after that die had experienced those wearing effects. The opportunity of owning scarce, collector attractive coins that also are the ultimate in quality for their era has a very special appeal to collectors. It also gives these coins tremendous "upside" potential, as show it very hard to pay too much for coins that offer the collector the
