    Congratulations James. Killer find. Did it come from a purchased lot?

  • I'd love to see a scan when you get it back if it is possible. Is it a really strong cameo or is PCGS loosening up? I've got one that didn't get the designation when I sent it in a year or more ago... (see attachment)

    Carl,

    Yours looks pretty nice as well.

    The one I sent if it were a 61 or 62 would cameo everytime. The reverse is stronger than the obverse, but none the less cameo.

    My scanner does not do justice to cameos, but when it comes back I'll try to post a scan. ( Coin was shipped today) For some reason my program will not allow me to scan as a JPEG, which I think PCGS web site requires.

    Is there another program out there that is accessible via the web that could be downloaded???

    DHeath - Coin was purchased from a dealer friend of mine. I told him it had a shot at cameo and then asked the price. We had a deal.

    As to the price of $5,000 sounds high, but for that number I could be bought out quickly.

    Forgot to add to the previous post.

    PCGS is not loosening up. The lot I sent was 5 day.

    I thought this nickel had a shot at 67, but 64??? Cameo yes.

    Sent in a 43/2-P nickel for upgrade to 66, they downgraded it to 64.

    Sent in a 64 quarter and half. Thought the half would go 65 it did, thought the quarter had a good shot at 67 it came back 65.

  • hey james, how come no report on the 56 type 1 near dcam franklin?
    tell us about it..
  • segojasegoja Posts: 6,134 ✭✭✭✭
    Mr. Funderburke,

    Not sure you really want to go there, but if you want to bring it back up, I'll be more than happy to oblige you.

    It took almost two weeks AFTER I last posted anything about that transaction for all the threads to die down.

    You just say the word, and it'll all get fired right back up!!!

    Signed

    Way to go James, super rarity on any Jeff CAM pre-50. And, Carl ... run -- don't walk -- run to Newport Beach tomorrow and hand deliver that undesignated CAM of yours, placing it gently into David Hall's palm with a pleading and pitiful look in your eyes. That is some coin, Carl.
  • Well I already sent it in once. It costs a lot of money to send in one coin just to see if it upgrades. I guess you could claim it was a $300 coin (I paid more) to get the economy rate of $15. Then add in the return registered mail fee of $10.50. If you repeat that a few times it begins to add up image Of course it is a 67 so a 67 Cam would pay for lots of tries... Maybe I will try it again...

    BTW super job on making a new early cameo Jefferson segoja! I got Adobe PhotoDelux with a scanner I bought. I use it to trim images and compress them into jpegs. If you can't find any software easily please just email an image of any size to me and I'll get it posted here.

    hello carl

    instead of wasting your time on resubmitting your coin in the holder for the upgrade, why not send it holdered to NCS, let them make a determination on whether to conserve it (which i believe they will), and then submit it raw to PCGS for the cameo designation. it appears frosted and cameo. with clean mirrors it's a no doubter.

    Why bring this up? Perhaps someone on these forums isn't aware of how you screwed him? Perhaps someone else needs to know to avoid pepperdoodles on eBay?

    The quick version (you can search these forums for the word "pepperdoodles" and read a few thousands posts on this subject).

    Exact facts ($, grade, etc might be a little off, but I think they are correct).

    doops (pepperdoodles on eBay) listed a 1956 T-1 Franklin in PCGS PR66CAM. He hypes it up as a 'should be DCAM' and segoja purchased it for $1500. The coin arrives and segoja felt it didn't match the description and it had no shot at all of ever being a DCAM.

    segoja asks to return the coin and pepperdoodles refuses. PD claims it is worth more than he paid, but won't take it back at the purchase price.

    pepperdoodles is an ANA member dealer and their rules state he must offer a return privilege. He refuses.

    The forum members start to talk about this and secret forum reader pepperdoodles starts sending threatening emails to forum members at random. We laugh at him and call him a scumbag.

    He joins these forums. He makes a lot of posts and dig his grave even deeper. He threatens members some more. We again laugh at him and tell him how pathetic he is.

    He responds by sending random members copies of other members emails to him. Those members have no idea what the hell he is talking about. He is now going to kick someone's (DCAMFrankin?) ass.

    He fails to ever have a valid reason why he won't take the coin back.

    General opinion of pepperdoodles is he is a scumbag and to be avoided and someone you should warn others away from.

    Tony- Greg's brief explanation is dead on. Use the SEARCH CATEGORY (Advanced), input Pepperdoodles hit search and read away. You will find the threads very enlightening.

    Gee, coming from you that means nothing to me. If I'm such a "joke" then why do you keep emailing me begging me to lay off you and your scumbag practices?

    Face it, you're (pepperdoodles on eBay) a scumbag dealer. The type of dealer that should be put out of business. You're no better than the scumbags that sell ACG coins to novices.

    I think I got the facts fairly accurate. The biggest fact is that you (pepperdoodles on eBay) should be avoided at all costs and everyone should warn others away from bidding on your over-hypes pure-BS garbage.

    BTW, have you been contacted yet by the Postal Inspector about those "lost" returns to you?
  • So Greg, now Pepperdoodles (doops) is E-mailing you begging you to lay off of his scumbag practices? Getting a little pathetic. image
  • Hello DCAMFranklin, if you are talking about this guy doops when you say pepperdoodles he fried me on the other thread because I said his anacs 1879-s udm color coin would cross to PCGS at a lower grade(ms63dm instead of ms64dm). He claimed that he knew about coins and that it didnt matter what holder it was in, he didnt have to cross it. But when you jumped him about the 1881cc 64dm in the ntc holder he said it was all there put the pliers on it crackout to PCGS dead lock 64dm maybe 65dm. The point is if he is so darn quick to cross that coin, and he knows his coins, wouldnt he send the other one to PCGS too if he thought it would cross at the same grade! I think he is fishing with that coin, trying to stick one of you guys on this forum, just to have a laugh at you. He even got one nibble at the coin(Dragon). I think this guy is a lot smarter than lots of people on this forum think he is.
    Never try to stop a pig from getting dirty. It is an impossible task and it annoys the pig!
  • Oilydog- I think you are right about those 2 coins. image

    facts idiot are: the anacs 79s dollar is a keeper as far as i'm concerned it could be raw.
    the 81cc that was in ntc holder was ONLY bought for the crack to submit to pcgs as a dmpl 64+ cameo
    for a resale profit.
    what's so hard to figure?
  • OK....OK....OK, enough already with those messages. I agree with you all. The only way to get this guy to leave the Forum is to ignore him. I'm with you! We'll ignore him! This will be my last response to doops. From now on, when he enters the neighborhood, any thread to which he posts will go straight to the bottom. image

    For the threatening emails, all you have to do is post the truth: anything that exposes pepperdoodles (doops) for the scumbag he is.

    As for the witty banter, I don't think he has any in stock.
  • this reminds me of somethign I read when I was four years old, something about . . .

    and everywhere that DCAMFranklin went, Doops was sure to follow.

    like a moth to a flame I tell ya.

    gotta hand it to DCAM, he sure is working this guy ooops like a puppet on a string.

    you're out of line frank and are playing right into the m/o this boy operates under.
    answer this entire forum one simple question.
    do you know who dcamfranklin is ?
    just a simple yes i do, or no i dont.


  • << <i>you're out of line frank >>



    not for you to say



    << <i> and are playing right into the m/o this boy operates under.

    frankly, I don't care. My point is that everytime DCAM posts you have to follow him around like a nine year old hiding behind a tree carrying on "I KNOW who you are"

    who gives a sh*t? I don't care if he is Charles Manson.

    What I do know is that you are a disruptive force on this forum and make it less pleasureable to read.

    You and DCAM meet somewhere, fight, and get it over with, but whatever your dispute is, take it somewhere where people care, because I doubt anyone here does.
