Is this half CAM, DCAM, or no CAM?

I'll say it... the pictures are terrible... it's a pain to shoot a proof set... anyway, there is no color on the reverse- it's simply colored because I had something above it to make the mirrors black, thus showing the contrast... I probably should have done that on the obverse shot...

Cameo minimum, shot DCAM.

Good answer, Russ!

Two questions, then...

1- What would it need to be DCAM that may not be in the picture?
2- What grade is a Cam or DC worth slabbing...?

Little or no interruption in the mirrors. They should be glassy and show reflectivity in every area at every angle. Too much mint frost, and it'll come up short.

If you're talking about selling, minimums would be a 69CAM or 68DCAM.

CAM at best, no DCAM. Weak contrast on the letters on the reverse, the shield and the eagles tail feathers would prevent DCAM designation. Could just be the picture....

I don't see enough solid, consistent Frost to merit a DCAM.

Based on the pictures, I would say a nice 68CAM. There are just a couple of distracting spots that would keep it from a 69.

PR67DCAM.

I'd probably get a better shot if I cracked it... there are a LOT of scratches on the set... I just don't want to crack the set if I'm not going to have a use for the raw half...
