OT- Followed IL license plate CAMEO 50 today

Morning rush hour, inbound to Chicago. Haven't seen this one before.

I used to see an IL plate CAMEO CC around occasionally, and of course MR AU58, but this one is new, on a brand new Dodge Magnum.

    I'm thinking about getting one that says "H10C FVR" image

    I knew one dealer who had a license plate with "AU65". And that's about how he graded.

    There is a couple I know of - DMPL 70 and PROOF 65 - and I think they're dealers, but cannot for the life of me recall who they were.

    That was Relayer's plate, and it matches his proof grades!!!
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Must be one who always overgrades coins quite a bit!

    Yup. His AU coins were all graded 65.

    Wow. I've seen a few coins that could be AU-63s and maybe even AU-64s, but "AU-65" is pretty much out of the question!

    Maybe I'm paranoid, but the last thing I want to do is bring any attention to my, my car or where I live that anything numismatic may be involved.

    Heck, I even rip the address labels off publications before I send them to the recycler (late at night when no one is looking).

    Never seen that one, but that's probably because Bob Lalas has enuff $$ to charter a helicopter to get him around. The tail number on his Lear jet is DMPL70 as well!image
