What do you guys think of this 1964 proof Jefferson?

Pulled from a proof set I got in last week. This is actually a dipping experiment; never done a nickel before. It was covered in ghastly haze when I first pulled it.

Nice coin, and I'd be interested to see how it turns out in a few weeks. I've tried a few, and it seems there is considerably more copper on the surface of these guys, and they seem to really need careful neutralizing after the bath. Post a follow-up and say how it went.

It looks DCAM to me. It looks like you dipped half the obverse. Must be some funny quirk of the image.

I don't see any haze on it anymore.

Carl,

Bad lighting. But, I don't think it would go DCAM. Certainly CAM, but not quite there for those tightwads at PCGS.

Don,

Yep, plan is to leave it on the shelf for an extended period and see what happens.
