Cameo Roosies!

Hello all, I am a new member. I have been surfing these message boards for quite awhile. I am active in the PCGS registry. Just wanted to introduce myself and try to get some cameo roosevelt dime discussion started. image My 1950-1964 set is #13, mt 1965-now is #12, and my 1965-now with varieties is #7

  • Welcome!

    I also like cameo proof coins. I'm doing the proof Jefferson nickel regsitry set and most of my coins are cameo.

    Hello and welcome!

    I'm currently #27, because I sold off my first set of NON-FB Roosies and decided to start another better collection. This one is slow and a work in progress.

    I just recently got my first older Cameo proof coin in the last week, and got another set today... and it's like, wow, that's cool image I'm working on a 20th Century Major Design, No Gold Type Set, on a budget. Target goal is to average $25 or less per coin. Right now, my average is at about $6 with 16 coins, b/c of some of the generous people here! image I am currently 47th of 58, with 38% completeness. I got a very pretty Cameo Roosy today though. A nice '63 in PCGS PR65DCAM. It's pretty, though it has a little spot over IN that kinda detracts from the eye appeal... but still pretty. I need to get me a camera so I can shoot some good pics of these coins image

    I'm trying to build my set to be the highest ranking without Cameo or deep cameo designations. My set is 100% complete but only 7% DC. I have a 64 Proof70......Many of my Proof 69's there are none higher. Looking to improve on a couple of 67's and I am looking for more proof 70's.

    Welcome to the Boards!

    The silver proof Roosies will probably be the next set I register. I have all but 2 dates, mostly CAM's, and one in an NGC holder. I think FDR was a great president, but the Roosevelt dime is a very uninspired design. It takes a cameo proof or rainbow toned coin to make it look very appealing.

    Welcome!

    I enjoy a nice late 50s proof, cents though halves. I've got a 70-S in 69DCAM on e-bay now.....

    I think Proof Cameo Roosevelt dimes are some of the most gorgeous coins around. I believe there are many undervalued coins in the series.

    Here is a nice one...
