SMS Fans - are these CAM or not?

I was looking at a 67 SMS set that I have and I came upon these - What do you think? Cam or not?

  • I think the Jeff is Cameo. That image sure looks like a strong Cameo to me, the reverse might even be close to DCAM. I'm not sure about the Kennedy...

    If the scan is an accurate representation, I think the half could go either way at PCGS right now.

    Bingo! way to go Frank. The nickel is a slamdunk. The reverse of the half is awesome. The obverse may be a little weak, but I bet they both go Cameo. Let us know! image

    Frank - The nickel looks cameo, the half I give a 60% chance because of

    a slightly weak obverse but strong reverse. I would go for it and good fortune.

    But really, what do we know. Im only a little bear and your a dog smoking a big cigar.

    If we can talk Lucy into a Betty Boop outfit the three of us could star in one of those really weird 1930's cartoons! image

  • Frank - Of course it's difficult to tell from a pic but........ the Jeff looks like a winner and the Kennedy does not. JFK appears to have a lot of flow lines in the fields which usually means little or no mirrors - the devices have a nice frosty appearance but for a SMS CAM/DCAM you have to have mirrors (which is where most people screw up on SMS coins - they see these frosted devices and start drooling...... or lighting up cigars image ). Quick and easy test - just run your finger a few inches in front of the coin...... got mirrors? Clear, clean mirrors? Then you got a CAM/DCAM. Frost/haziness? No go........ image
    ahhhh....... SODO MELVIN?????
