For the Cameo set I own it and made all five coins from raw submissions.

Total eye candy
Another GREAT set “made” from scouring hundreds of raw proofs, and then buying and submitting for grading what your keen eyes found are the best! @SanctionII , “you’ve done it again!”

My collecting “Pride & Joy” is my PCGS Registry Dansco 7070 Set:

I just bought an unopened 56 a few days ago, planning to crack it tomorrow. I have few hopes of anything as spectacular as your finds, but I am looking forward to whatever I get. No matter what this won’t be my last try at unopened proofs, it’s like Christmas as a kid lol
For this 1956 set I own and made the cent, nickel.and half. I think all three warrant a Cameo, but our host disagrees with me.
The quarter and dime are examples taken from Coinfacts that, while frosted, also did not receive a Cameo designation
TTT.
I updated the OP to add photos of a separate Cameo 1956 Proof Set.
Ah, welcome to the subjectivity of the CAM standard. Gotta love it!
