    You've been searching for a 67CAM with a giant fingerprint on the head?

    I'm not sure about the dark area on the back of the head. But a nice score!!
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    c'mon, Ken, settle down!!!!

    truth is that judging by the picture Sean is probably closer to the true grade than what you'd hope PCGS/NGC to assign. that's just a tough issue and time is proving that in the top grades it's gonna be a long term sure-fire winner, unless you happen to be one of the number who believe there are just millions of unsearched sets out there holding DCAM gems.........................i can assure you that isn't so because the Easter Bunny told me so!!image

    Al, I have already gotten NGC grades of PF68*CAM and PF69*CAM for 71 Kennedies. This coin is better.

    I don't like the blood stain on the back of JFKs head!!

    Ken I have made dozens of these in 69*CAM and 68*CAM. But only one in PF69UCAM and only one in PR69DCAM. It's a nice looking coin, and it will UCAM, but getting the 69, I don't think so...

    Ken that looks like a stain of some sort on the back of the head? NCS first? I'm thinking of sending these two in on my next submission?

    TTT.

    I had this thread bookmarked and just stumbled across the link. Ken, did you ever get the coin that used to be pictured in the first post graded?

    Nice score! I humbly withdraw my year-old criticism of the coin. image
