I am putting together the 1965 - 1967 SMS Set and need the Washington to complete it. Currently sitting at #68 with my Little Cypress Creek Collection set. I think the population is 57 in 66 Cameo so they don't show very often. I would prefer a 67 Cameo. If ya got one or know where I might look for one any help would be appreciated.

Gonna bump this thread for a few days just to give all the folks here the opportunity to help a poor collector find his wayward coin to complete a set. Thanks gentlemen and ladies.
Any leads out there? Any assistance would be appreciated,
PM sent.
Still looking for that elusive cameo Washington to finish off my set.
Not gonna give up just yet. Still on the hunt.
Still searching for this Washington for my set.
Thought I would just resurrect this old post instead of starting a new one.
Completed the 1965 - 1967 SMS set (sans the 1965 Washie in Cameo) but I have moved my set to #14.
Wanting a nice SMS 1965 Washington in 66 Cam or 67 Cam.
Need this Washington to finish my set in cameo.
If ya got one or can point me in the direction of one that would be much appreciated.
Keep looking at coin shops or ask friends if they have any SMS sets they want to sell. You can occasionally find a nice one. I recently found a Washington quarter 1965 SMS that should make the cameo grade when I send it in to PCGS to be slabbed. I am looking for a 1966 cameo in MS67 or MS68. I scored a 1967 MS68 Cameo in a PCGS holder for $50.00 at a coin shop. They had it priced without taking the cameo grade into consideration. Good luck on the hunt and let me know if you have a extra 1966 cameo available.
I check daily to see if this particular coin has been listed on any of my favorite search sites.
The SMS 1965 Washington has a pop of
57 in MS 66 Cam and
44 in MS 67 Cam so a fairly low pop coin to start with.
With many examples already listed in the 1967 Mint sets and the 1965 - 1967 Mint sets there are not too many slabbed coins out in the wild to pick from. That is the reason I am asking for help from the board here. The more eyes searching the better the odds.
Bump for the later crowd.
Somebody out there make me one in 67 Cameo. I'll wait.
A few more bumps and then give y'all a break again.
Several NGC MS67 Cameo’s on eBay…..
There are always a few listed and I check those out too. I haven't seen any listed lately that I think would cross to PCGS holders. So I am reluctant to spend the (I'm retired on a budget) money on a gamble. I would prefer to just purchase the right coin in the right holder.
Do appreciate your post though. Thanks.
