  • It looks cam to me unless the fields aren't deep enough. It is difficult to determine form the scan. Here's a PCGS SMS MS67CAM obverse for comparison; sorry there is no reverse scan.

  • should I try to take the pics with the fields reflecting a black background?

    The frost on the date and reverse lettering looks too weak for CAM, but it may be the picture.

    Looks good enough to submit...my gut tells will it will 66cam could 67cam if they are a little forgiving of the chatter toward the rim.

    Put it this way, I would be willing to buy the coin from you, for quite a high premium over raw cost.

  • Take Morris' offer. Looks like a weak strike to me. The tops of the letters are so much flatter than oldcameoproofguy's image. I don't think it will cam.
