No peeking. Which ones received at least a Cameo designation?
Others are being imaged and will be posted later.

There is no way to tell which coins got a CAM from those images. The field and devices look almost exactly the same on even DCAMs.
With that said, I am fairly confident that none of the 1942 and early coins got a designation. They are every attractive however.

Love the look of these. I'll guess the 1963 is cameo as it has hammered look to it.

Proof Jeffersons (of those eras, anyway) sure do take on some great toning.
I just picked up 40 proof 1961 nickels still in the mylar. A couple have unattractive spotting and the rest are a variety of clean and toned finishes.
Nice group!!! I love those nickels!

Very nice coins!
Very, very nice coins my brother 👌
Thanks for your comments.
For the 1951 to 1964 nickels, all of them have mirrored fields, frosted devices and a Cameo appearance. Two of the 1950 nickels also have a Cameo appearance.
Of those nickels one of the 1950s and the 1953, 1957 and 1961 are toned. The others are untoned.
In late 2017 I posted a thread with photos of many of these nickels (which show them as the actually look in hand).
Only three of these nickels received a Cameo or better designation.
Really nice nickels.... I cannot determine CAM from those pictures. Several look as if they might get it... Cheers, RickO
