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! The finest cameos, being early strikes off proof dies, are quite simply coin "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 between a coin struck much later off the die - a brilliant proof. If one did holder not know better, one would think that the two coins coin were struck from two completely different dies! In a sense, they were. More correctly, they were both struck holder 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, 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 it very hard to pay too much for coins that offer the collector the
opportunity coin to own the "ultimate". I recently sold a 1954 NGC Cameo PF 66 Lincoln cent, ultra-heavily contrasted, to a client for $400. No other series in U.S. numismatics today offer the collector so much quality, eye-appeal, and rarity, for so little money. If there is any doubt as to the rarity of a 1954 ultra-heavy cameo Lincoln holder cent, go out and try to find another! Attend the next local coin show. Attend the next ANA show, the next FUN show coin (one of the two or three largest shows of the year). Good luck! You will find other U.S. coins of far lower quality, with far less appeal, that are far more common, for the same amount of money! You won''t find that 1954 cameo cent!There are many other dates holder and denominations in the cameo proof series as undervalued as the 1954 cameo Lincoln. The series is loaded with "sleepers". The Special Mint Set coinage of the 1965 to 1967 period are sleepers, coin as is the 1950 ultra-heavy Cameo PF 65 Franklin (yes, even at $6500 - it is one of the great rarities of twentieth century coinage), 1951 ultra-heavy Cameo PF 65 Franklin, 1952 ultra-heavy Cameo PF 65 Franklin The most popular single market in U.S. numismatics today is unquestionably the silver dollar market. Yet,
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 the opinions of literally thousands of collectors holder and dealers already familiar with this coinage. Proof coins themselves are minted specifically for collectors. As such, they have always represented the state-of-the-art in minting techniques. The mint has always gone to considerable trouble to produce these coins. Proof dies are highly polished and buffed 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 coin pressures than business strikes, holder to bring out every possible detail. 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
