This (all 5 proof sets) has to be the brightest most CAMEO Jefferson I have ever seen in a 71!

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    i have to admit it does look DCAM and sweet.

    obverse is simply stunning. do you consider the reverse much weaker?

    That could have very well been the first coin off of a new die set!!!

    Outstanding coin!!!image

    DCAM 1971s are not an easy thing to come by, I don't know how many sets I have looked at and never found a true DCAM Half Dollar!

    Nope, the reverse is just like the obverse. BTW, I had to crank down the brightness on this one!

    Those are easy to find that look like that. There are millions of them hiding in secret hoards of virgin proof sets.

    Wow. Nicest 71 jeff I've ever seen. Hard to put a technical grade on it from a pic but it looks great. I know its another crappy "modern" but anyone who sez these grow from trees has never looked through several hundred 71 proof sets in a single pop and not found one that nice.

    So much nicer than the crap in my old proof sets from the 70's.

    I'm not really into those, and I think it looks super image

    I bet Laura has a closet full of DCAM 71 proof sets! She's a marketmaker you know!!

    My crystal ball says I couldn't offer enough at this moment to own it... so I won't ask.

    Nice coin. I also hope it ends up in the PCGS holder it deserves.

    Peace!

    That's a strong argument in favor of the virtues of moderns. The pricing can be argued, but not the quality.
    Proudly upholding derelict standards for five decades.
