19th century proofs! (Are these normal? Proof people...HELP!)

TheLiberator

I have been researching some older proof coins and I am amazed at how PRETTY some of these things are. I have seen a few barber quarters that absolutely GLOWED amber! WOW! Tell me, does this look normally come on old proofs? If so, I might have just found a new collecting desire!!

Some of the most beautifully toned coins are proofs from the 1800's. I hope you have a fat wallet.

there are many beautifully toned and cameo proof coins of the 1800's that are solid to high end proof 64 coins in ngc and pcgs holders that can be bought for under $1000 some way under $1000

and even some that are proof 65 for under $1000

okie well yes i would agree with you but can you give me some examples by date??????


i guess for me cameo proof coins strong cameos are rarer for post 1900 proof barbers and liberty nickels


deep/ultra cameo coins would be really rare
