How can you guess that grade when there is no grade to guess?

Louis

Bodybag the camera.

Apparently you're experimenting with the transparency lens filter.

Same here. I'm actually pretty happy that I guessed the grade properly. But I always thought that a cameo designation meant a contrast between a frosted area and a mirror-like area. I just do not see ANY frosted areas on that coin. (As for the color designation, well, I couldn't see the red color from the original picture).

Linkys and Jeffs just dont frost like the silver coins.

My guess is the metals are much harder and as such the die prep goes away very quickly.

Course if i was good with photoshop i could make them look really nice.

You may say that NGC is lenient on Cams but i dont think so,i have a PCGS in 66 CAM and this coin is easily as contrasted.

I have to agree with the above. I see very little cameo effect. I was thinking an easy PR-67, maybe 68, but I saw very little cameo effect.

That is one fine looking 1957 proof lincoln cent. The photos make it hard to see cameo contrast. I imagine that looking at the coin in hand under good lighting will cause the sameo contrast to leap off of the coin at you. Very nice. Congrats.
