Update about 5-6 posts down...

Bought a '65 SMS set from my dealer for $8, found this in there.... I see heritage has only auctioned off one dcam 1965 dime and it went for over $2k...

Pictures suck, taken with my phone. I'm at a bar and will try to post some better pics tomorrow.

    Looks pretty nice, but you have to take it out of the package and get better pics

    Could be cam, but I have to agree with /

    Need better pictures to make a fully educated guess but from what I can see, looks to have a shot at CAM

    "A word to the wise." Usually, If one thinks Their coin in the cello will Cam,It looks twice as Cam when taken out of the cello. Good Luck!

    I'm not a modern guy, but IMO that quarter will has a shot into a CAM holder.
  • Neither of them look cam passable at PCGS. The frost appears weak in areas on the portraits but espeacially on the lettering.

    If it shows any waekness PCGS will not give it a cam designation.

    Ngc may go cam on the dime as they have been in times past much more forgiving in this area.

    They are very nice eye appealing coins and are relatively Cams in comparison to absolutely camless side by sides.

    Another indication you may not have a PCGS Cam is: If you have to obtain a certain angle to get the cam to pop then it most likely will not pass Cam muster. Or if you have to get multiple angles to get the whole coin to display Cam, then again it probably wont make it.

    Maybe the dime. The rest I don't think will CAM.
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I don't think any will cam at PCGS - the dime has an outside shot.

    A nice set but the spot on the qtr would limit the grade and not be worth sending even if it did cam, the dime has a 40/60 chance and I doubt I'd bother unless you have some others your sending in.
