    MS-64 no cam. 67's come nice, nicer than all the other SMS coins. In fact, they are VERY similar to modern proofs. They occasionally have great mirrors and heavy cameo. They are graded to a much tougher standard than 65-66 coins. That one has too many hits in the focal areas to gem (IMO), and the cameo is weak for a 1967. Grade it as you would a proof and you'll be close.

    I count the coin below (mine) MS65 Cam. Hope that helps.

  • Kennedy looks like you put on a little weight on Dheath's.

    Morris,

    It's funny you mentioned it, but the bust changed width several times in the series, and I call the coins through 68 fatheads. The shield has undergone several changes too.image

  • I think it is not worth near as much as the guy wants for it

    This seller doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground in this series.

    Here's an example.
